Welcome to OSTree-TUI. This project provides a more user friendly approach to a OSTree interface. It's purpose is to assist developers when using the command line to interact with OSTree (not to replace the command line interface completely).

Usage & Features

To start the OSTree-TUI, simply type ostree-tui <repo_path> (replace <repo_path> with the path to the desired repository), or ostree-tui --help to see its options. Navigating the application is possible with the arrow keys, or mouse input. Special actions are described in the bottom-bar.

The features currently include:

• Display a commit tree on the left
• Branch filter options on the top right
• Display details to the selected commit on the right

Upcoming features can be viewed in the issues!
