Magit is one of the few things that makes me, as a Vim user, envy Emacs. And org-mode, since I'm being honest.

You can use Magit even if you're a Vim user. You don't have to buy into the whole Emacs system – you can treat Emacs as the virtual machine that runs Magit.

  Yes, I use Emacs 90% just for magit (and 10% for org-mode for some time tracking), but no text editing or coding at all.
- tambourine_man 7mo ago
  Yeah, but it's not as convenient.

Magit was the only thing keeping me in emacs for a long time, but the neovim clone, neogit, is now 90% of the way there for my use cases, same interface same everything

  I need to move to Neovim. Thanks for the nudge.

    Any tips on how?

      Depends on where you’re coming from. If you have a decades old .vimrc like I do, that meant a few conditionals to load niceties such as LSP when running on nvim. I got that mostly working but there are still a few things missing. If you’re starting from scratch, that’s much easier.

  Awesome! I had no idea! I will give it a shot :) Thanks ~

If you haven’t seen it you may want the fugitive plugin for vim. It seems to give a reasonable level of git magic within vim. Maybe not as magic as magit, but it does a lot including good handling of interactive rebases.

  Yes, I use fugitive everyday and it’s a very clever plugin. But when I see magit I know what I’m missing.

jj/jjui should have you covered

jj with jjui is even better, coming from someone who used magit for years.

As a magit lover, LazyGit is a fine replacement that works even better in some cases, but falls just short overall. Still very usable both inside and outside neovim.
