## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

diffnav is a Git diff pager that combines delta-style diff rendering with a file-tree navigation pane. It is a newer terminal UI tool aimed at making large diffs easier to browse.

### Projektgeschichte

The diffnav repository was created in 2024 and describes the tool as a Git diff pager based on delta with a GitHub-like file tree. Its README documents side-by-side and unified views, watch mode, file-tree controls, and configuration through YAML.

The release feed shows rapid early iteration through 2026, with versions from the 0.6.0 through 0.11.0 series published in the first quarter of that year.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

Because diffnav is young, its adoption history is still mostly upstream-led: the README documents installation through Homebrew from the author's tap or building with Go, plus usage as a global Git diff pager. The package-manager interest is in bringing a newer TUI diff-navigation workflow to standard install channels.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Users pipe git diff or gh pr diff output into diffnav, or configure Git with pager.diff diffnav. The tool adds keyboard navigation, file-tree toggling, side-by-side or unified rendering, and watch mode for refreshing a diff command.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

diffnav matters to package nerds as part of the modern wave of Go-based terminal UIs: a single installable binary, YAML config, Git integration, and explicit dependence on established projects such as delta and Bubble Tea.
