In their own words
gitsome
gitsome is a free Git and GitHub command-line interface intended to make Git and shell work easier. It includes 29 GitHub-integrated commands that work across shells. Its optional shell adds autocomplete and interactive help for Git commands, options, branches, tags, Git-Extras, and GitHub integration commands. It can also suggest shell commands, files, directories, environment variables, man pages, and Python. Fish-style suggestions and a Python REPL through xonsh are available, alongside command history and customizable ANSI highlighting. gitsome integrates with GitHub and GitHub Enterprise and can be used with Git-Extras and hub commands. It is distributed through PyPI for pip3 installation and can also run in Docker. The listed operating systems are macOS, Linux, Unix, and Windows. GitHub integration may require account credentials, two-factor authentication, a personal access token, or other connection details. The README lists Python 3.4 through 3.7 as supported and says xonsh does not support Python 2.x. On Windows, gh user and gh me display text-only avatars. PyPI lists version 0.8.4, uploaded April 7, 2019, as the latest release.
Hyper
Hyper is a free terminal application for people working in a command-line interface. It runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows, with split panes, GPU acceleration, SSH support, and a scripting API. The project says speed and stability are priorities and uses xterm.js as its terminal engine. Users can configure the shell, environment variables, appearance, window size, scrollback, and other settings in .hyper.js, and change command bindings there as well. Themes and extensions provide additional ways to alter or intercept terminal behavior. Extensions are Node.js modules available on npm; the API lets plugins work with React components and Redux actions. Plugins can be reloaded with Command+R, and Hyper also loads them periodically or after plugin configuration changes. Downloads are listed for macOS, Windows, Debian, Fedora, and AppImage. The displayed latest version is v3.4.1.
