We introduced this when everything still got executed sychronously. It also dosn't play well with multiple active VCS anymore.
Signify (or just Sy) uses the sign column to indicate added, modified and removed lines in a file that is managed by a version control system.
- Supports git, mercurial, darcs, bazaar, subversion, cvs, rcs, fossil, accurev, perforce, tfs.
- VCS tools are executed asynchronously for Vim 7.4.1967+ or Neovim.
- Mappings for navigation of hunks ("blocks of changed lines").
- An operator that acts on hunks, e.g. for editing or deleting.
- Optional line highlighting for lines with signs.
- Preserve signs from other plugins.
- Define lists for skipping certain filetypes or filenames.
- Depending on your workflow you can also disable the plugin by default and toggle it per buffer later.
- Great documentation and handsome maintainers!
If git is the only version control system you use, I suggest having a look at vim-gitgutter.
Installation
Use your favorite plugin manager, e.g. using vim-plug:
Plug 'mhinz/vim-signify'
Documentation
- Understand how the plugin works by reading this short intro:
:h signify-modus-operandi - The single most important option by far:
:h g:signify_vcs_list
