thanks for the info; will give it a try

fyi, a couple of features that lazygit does not have, or that aren't easily done in lazygit and which pycharm does quite well (I've used _many_ git tools, and IMO pycharm's internal implementation is still the best, but I switched to lazygit because I dropped pycharm for zed).

- diff any branch against any other branch (lazygit relies on certain branches being marked or inferred as main branches against which you can diff)

- see a file's git history (and which branches those commits are on), drill into the commits

- github (or gitlab, codeberg, etc.) support: open commit in github (easiest way to share commit with a co-worker, for example)

Thanks! Super valuable feedback! I'll make sure to implement these features in the near future. The branch diff is already there and works quite nice.
