Installation

Use pip:

python -m pip install pygments-git

Python 3.9 to 3.14 supported.

Usage

With the package installed, Pygments will autodiscover the below lexers.

When using Pygments directly, you can refer to them by name. Within Sphinx/docutils, you can refer to them in code-block directives:

.. code-block:: git-console

    $ git log --oneline
    82fbbd3 D'oh! Fix math proof
    91e9879 Aye carumba! Grammar mistake
    61c4c08 Cowabunga! Update bibliography

To preview the lexers, open the tests/index.html file within the repository.

git-attributes

A lexer for .gitattributes files.

git-blame-ignore-revs

A lexer for the file format used by blame.ignoreRevsFile. The de facto name for a repository-wide ignore file is .git-blame-ignore-revs, as recognized by GitHub and potentially other Git hosting services.

git-commit-edit-msg

A lexer for the COMMIT_EDITMSG file that Git opens when you run git commit. It calls out to DiffLexer for highlighting any diff, as added by git commit --verbose.

git-conflict-markers

A lexer for the conflict markers that Git adds to indicate conflicts during a merge. All other text in the file is lexed as plain text.

git-console

A lexer for interactive shell sessions with Git. It calls out to BashLexer for highlighting commands on lines starting with a $ and DiffLexer for highlighting inline diffs.

git-ignore

A lexer for .gitignore files.

git-rebase-todo

A lexer for the git-rebase-todo file that Git opens when you run git rebase --interactive. It calls out to BashLexer for highlighting commands on lines starting with x or exerc a $ and DiffLexer for highlighting inline diffs.
