One of the largest pieces of feedback I've had is around displaying the actual git commands that lazygit runs so now there's a new panel that does exactly that, displayed by default. I find that works well for demystifying what's going on and can actually help educate on which commands can satisfy which use cases. It's also kept me accountable in that if I try to satisfy some use case in a sneaky, smart way, it results in a scary looking series of git commands, so I've scaled back some of the 'magical' stuff that was going on for the sake of user confidence.


I always read these "make git easy" threads and I've also written my own "make git easy" wrapper around git. But this comment is the first that has ever given me confidence in actually trying one (by someone else). Nice job.


What a great idea! Improved confidence + faster learning in a single feature.
