A Guided Tour of emacs-git
- mechanical_fish 16y agoI use "magit" for emacs; for the stuff that I don't find easy to do in magit (or that I don't remember the magit workflow for) I use the standard shell commands (also inside emacs). I only skimmed this, but I didn't see anything here that would make me switch from magit. It looks like a matter of personal taste to me. Did I miss something?
- philjackson 16y agoThe maintainer of Magit is an asshole.
- angelixd 16y agoYeah, such a fucking jerk!
- crescendo 16y agoWhoops, I downvoted you before I got the joke. Sorry about that!
- mechanical_fish 16y agoI can't even figure out if I should upvote or downvote. Oh, the perils of reverse SEO as a form of entertainment! ;)
- aamar 16y agoNote: philjackson is the current maintainer of magit, which is anyway a fine and useful project. I've recently moved to egg, a fork of magit with a very readable UI. http://github.com/byplayer/egg http://github.com/byplayer/egg http://wiki.github.com/bogolisk/egg/manual http://wiki.github.com/bogolisk/egg/manual (screenshot)
- philjackson 16y agoEgg is great, I'm not trying to poach you as a user, but you should give the key-groups branch of Magit a try. It has similar discoverability semantics as Egg but with more functionality.
- johan_l 16y agoHey, you _are_ trying to poach him!
- kscaldef 16y agoIt's not clear to me from the page: does C-x v v commit all modified files (like git commit -m), or just the current file? I'd like more information about how this interacts with the git index in general.
