Git Graphor

Git Graphor is a Visual Studio Code extension that brings an interactive Git history graph directly into your editor — with native diff integration and Git actions built in, so you never have to leave VS Code.

Features

Interactive Git Graph

Visualize your entire commit history as a branching graph. Each node shows the commit hash, author, date and refs (local branches, remote branches and tags).

Native Diff Integration

Click any file in a commit to open a native VS Code diff tab, labeled as file (commitA ↔ commitB). No external tools required.

Commit Details

Select any commit to see a full breakdown: changed files, additions/deletions per file, total stats and the full commit message.

Branch Management

Create, delete, checkout and merge branches directly from the graph — no terminal needed.

Remote Actions

Fetch, pull and push from the toolbar with a single click.

Working Tree Panel

Stage, unstage and discard individual files. View staged, unstaged and conflicted files side by side. Commit with a message without leaving the panel.

Search & Filters

Filter the graph by commit message, hash, author, branch or date range.

Commit Context Menu

Right-click any commit to: checkout, cherry-pick, create a branch from it, copy the hash or open it in the terminal.

Requirements

• Git must be installed and available in PATH.
• A folder with a valid Git repository must be open in VS Code.

Commands

All commands are also accessible from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).

Getting Started

1. Open a Git repository in VS Code.
2. Click the Git Graphor icon in the Source Control title bar, or run Git Graphor: Open Graph from the Command Palette.
3. Browse commits, click to see details, and use the toolbar for branch and remote actions.

Privacy

Git Graphor uses the local Git CLI only. No data is sent to any remote service and no credentials are stored or read by the extension.
