1. "Bad Credentials" Error Top ▲

Some users have trouble pushing/pulling from remotes and adding their ssh-key to their ssh-agent solved the issue. The error they get is:

See gihtub's excellent documentation for Adding your SSH Key to the ssh-agent

Note that in some cases adding the line ssh-add -K ~/.ssh/id_ed25519(or whatever your key is called) to your bash init script is necessary too to survive restarts.

2. Custom key bindings Top ▲

If you want to use vi-style keys or customize your key bindings in any other fashion see the specific docs on that: key config

3. Watching for changes Top ▲

By default, gitui polls for changes in the working directory every 5 seconds. If you supply --watcher as an argument, it uses a notify-based approach instead. This is usually faster and was for some time the default update strategy. It turned out, however, that notify-based updates can cause issues on some platforms, so tick-based updates seemed like a safer default.

See #1444 for details.
