This plugin for Neovim opens lazygit in a new tab. Press q in that tab will close lazygit.

I use this in place of any more vim-y git integrations.

You can trigger it as a command, via :LazyGit or by binding to the <Plug> binding, <Plug>(lazygit.nvim), like so:

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>lg", "<Plug>(lazygit.nvim)")

Installation

With lazy.nvim:

{
    "oncomouse/lazygit.nvim",
    cmd = "LazyGit",
    keys = { "<Plug>(lazygit.nvim)" },
}

With packer.nvim:

use({
    "oncomouse/lazygit.nvim",
    cmd = "LazyGit",
    keys = { "<Plug>(lazygit.nvim)" },
})
