Re:GitUI: Terminal UI for Git

looks like there's a key binding file to enable vim bindings.
Having said that, I'm also a tig user and at least at first glance, I prefer its simplicity. Gitui presents a huge amount of info on the default screen and spends quite a lot of real estate drawing borders around everything. Tig just takes me straight to the commit history, full screen and then I have single key actions to get to other views.
The only thing I don't like with Tig is how little it binds to keys with the expectation that you set up your own mappings to git commands. I would prefer it baked more of them in so they would be standard and documented ... but that is a minor complaint.
