*fugitive.txt* a Git wrapper so awesome, it should be illegal

==============================================================================
INTRODUCTION *fugitive*
Install in ~/.vim, or in ~\vimfiles if you're on Windows and feeling lucky.
Vim 7.2 is recommended as it ships with syntax highlighting for many Git file
types.
If you're in a hurry to get started, here are some things to try:
In any file in your repository, run |:Gedit| HEAD. Press <CR> to jump to the
current branch. Press <CR> again to jump to the top most commit. Keep using
<CR> to explore parent commits, trees, and blobs. Use C in a tree or blob to
get back to the commit.
Edit a file in the work tree and make some changes. Use |:Gdiff| to open up
the indexed version. Use |do| and |dp| on various hunks to bring the files in
sync, or use |:Gread| to pull in all changes. Write the indexed version to
stage the file.
Run |:Gblame| in a work tree file to see a blame in a vertical split. Press
<CR> on any line to reopen and reblame that file as it stood in that commit.
Press o or O on any line to inspect that commit in a split or a tab.
Run |:Ggrep| to search the work tree or history. Run |:Gmove| to rename a
file. Run |:Gremove| to delete a file.
==============================================================================
COMMANDS *fugitive-commands*
These commands are local to the buffers in which they work (generally, buffers
that are part of Git repositories).
*fugitive-:Git*
:Git [args] Run an arbitrary git command. Similar to :!git [args]
but chdir to the repository tree first.
*fugitive-:Gcd*
:Gcd [directory] |:cd| relative to the repository.
*fugitive-:Glcd*
:Glcd [directory] |:lcd| relative to the repository.
*fugitive-:Gstatus*
:Gstatus Bring up the output of git-status in the preview
window. Press - to stage or unstage the file on the
cursor line. Press C to invoke |:Gcommit|.
*fugitive-:Gcommit*
:Gcommit [args] A wrapper around git-commit. If there is nothing
to commit, |:Gstatus| is called instead. Unless the
arguments given would skip the invocation of an editor
(e.g., -m), a split window will be used to obtain a
commit message. Write and close that window (:wq or
|:Gwrite|) to finish the commit. Unlike when running
the actual git-commit command, it is possible (but
unadvisable) to muck with the index with commands like
git-add and git-reset while a commit message is
pending.
*fugitive-:Ggrep*
:Ggrep [args] |:grep| with git-grep as 'grepprg'.
*fugitive-:Glog*
:Glog [args] Load all previous revisions of the current file into
the quickfix list. Additional git-log arguments can
be given (for example, --reverse). If "--" appears as
an argument, no file specific filtering is done, and
commits are loaded into the quickfix list.
*fugitive-:Gedit* *fugitive-:Ge*
:Gedit [revision] |:edit| a |fugitive-revision|.
*fugitive-:Gsplit*
:Gsplit [revision] |:split| a |fugitive-revision|.
*fugitive-:Gvsplit*
:Gvsplit [revision] |:vsplit| a |fugitive-revision|.
*fugitive-:Gtabedit*
:Gtabedit [revision] |:tabedit| a |fugitive-revision|
*fugitive-:Gpedit*
:Gpedit [revision] |:pedit| a |fugitive-revision|
*fugitive-:Gread*
:Gread [revision] Empty the buffer and |:read| a |fugitive-revision|.
When the argument is omitted, this is similar to
git-checkout on a work tree file or git-add on a stage
file, but without writing anything to disk.
:{range}Gread [revision]
|:read| in a |fugitive-revision| after {range}.
*fugitive-:Gread!*
:Gread! [revision] Deprecated synonym for |:Gread|.
*fugitive-:Gwrite*
:Gwrite Write to the current file's path and stage the results.
When run in a work tree file, it is effectively git
add. Elsewhere, it is effectively git-checkout. A
great deal of effort is expended to behave sensibly
when the work tree or index version of the file is
open in another buffer.
:Gwrite {path} You can give |:Gwrite| an explicit path of where in
the work tree to write. You can also give a path like
:0:foo.txt or even :0 to write to just that stage in
the index.
*fugitive-:Gdiff*
:Gdiff [revision] Perform a |vimdiff| against the current file in the
given revision. With no argument, the version in the
index is used (which means a three-way diff during a
merge conflict, making it a git-mergetool
alternative). Use |do| and |dp| and write to the
index file to simulate "git add --patch".
*fugitive-:Gmove*
:Gmove {destination} Wrapper around git-mv that renames the buffer
afterward. The destination is relative to the current
directory except when started with a /, in which case
it is relative to the work tree. Add a ! to pass -f.
*fugitive-:Gremove*
:Gremove Wrapper around git-rm that deletes the buffer
afterward. When invoked in an index file, --cached is
passed. Add a ! to pass -f and forcefully discard the
buffer.
*fugitive-:Gblame*
:Gblame Run git-blame on the file and open the results in a
scroll bound vertical split. Press enter on a line to
reblame the file as it was in that commit.
:[range]Gblame Run git-blame on the given range.
==============================================================================
MAPPINGS *fugitive-mappings*
These maps are available in Git objects.
*fugitive-<CR>*
<CR> Jump to the revision under the cursor.
*fugitive-o*
o Jump to the revision under the cursor in a new split.
*fugitive-O*
O Jump to the revision under the cursor in a new tab.
*fugitive-~*
~ Go to the current file in the [count]th first
ancestor.
*fugitive-P*
P Go to the current file in the [count]th parent.
*fugitive-C*
C Go to the commit containing the current file.
*fugitive-a*
a Show the current tag, commit, or tree in an alternate
format.
==============================================================================
SPECIFYING REVISIONS *fugitive-revision*
Fugitive revisions are similar to Git revisions as defined in the "SPECIFYING
REVISIONS" section in the git-rev-parse man page. For commands that accept an
optional revision, the default is the file in the index for work tree files
and the work tree file for everything else. Example revisions follow.
Revision Meaning ~
HEAD .git/HEAD
master .git/refs/heads/master
HEAD^{} The commit referenced by HEAD
HEAD^ The parent of the commit referenced by HEAD
HEAD: The tree referenced by HEAD
/HEAD The file named HEAD in the work tree
Makefile The file named Makefile in the work tree
HEAD^:Makefile The file named Makefile in the parent of HEAD
:Makefile The file named Makefile in the index (writable)
- The current file in HEAD
^ The current file in the previous commit
~3 The current file 3 commits ago
: .git/index (Same as |:Gstatus|)
:0 The current file in the index
:1 The current file's common ancestor during a conflict
:2 The current file in the target branch during a conflict
:3 The current file in the merged branch during a conflict
:/foo The most recent commit with "foo" in the message
