fugitive.vim
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
I'm not going to lie to you; fugitive.vim may very well be the best
|
|
Git wrapper of all time. Check out these features:
|
|
|
|
View any blob, tree, commit, or tag in the repository with `:Gedit` (and
|
|
`:Gsplit`, `:Gvsplit`, `:Gtabedit`, ...). Edit a file in the index and
|
|
write to it to stage the changes. Use `:Gdiff` to bring up the staged
|
|
version of the file side by side with the working tree version and use
|
|
Vim's diff handling capabilities to stage a subset of the file's
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
Bring up the output of `git status` with `:Gstatus`. Press `-` to
|
|
`add`/`reset` a file's changes, or `p` to `add`/`reset` `--patch` that
|
|
mofo. And guess what `:Gcommit` does!
|
|
|
|
`:Gblame` brings up an interactive vertical split with `git blame`
|
|
output. Press enter on a line to reblame the file as it stood in that
|
|
commit, or `o` to open that commit in a split. When you're done, use
|
|
`:Gedit` in the historic buffer to go back to the work tree version.
|
|
|
|
`:Gmove` does a `git mv` on a file and simultaneously renames the
|
|
buffer. `:Gremove` does a `git rm` on a file and simultaneously deletes
|
|
the buffer.
|
|
|
|
Use `:Ggrep` to search the work tree (or any arbitrary commit) with
|
|
`git grep`, skipping over that which is not tracked in the repository.
|
|
`:Glog` loads all previous revisions of a file into the quickfix list so
|
|
you can iterate over them and watch the file evolve!
|
|
|
|
`:Gread` is a variant of `git checkout -- filename` that operates on the
|
|
buffer rather than the filename. This means you can use `u` to undo it
|
|
and you never get any warnings about the file changing outside Vim.
|
|
`:Gwrite` writes to both the work tree and index versions of a file,
|
|
making it like `git add` when called from a work tree file and like
|
|
`git checkout` when called from the index or a blob in history.
|
|
|
|
Use `:Gbrowse` to open the current file on GitHub, with optional line
|
|
range (try it in visual mode!). If your current repository isn't on
|
|
GitHub, `git instaweb` will be spun up instead.
|
|
|
|
Add `%{fugitive#statusline()}` to `'statusline'` to get an indicator
|
|
with the current branch in (surprise!) your statusline.
|
|
|
|
Oh, and of course there's `:Git` for running any arbitrary command.

Fugitive cares about the current file, not the current working

directory. Edit a file from the repository.
