# 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`. And guess
|
|
what `:Gcommit` does!
|
|
|
|
`:Gblame` brings up an interactive vertical split with `git blame`
|
|
output. Press enter on a line to edit the commit where the line
|
|
changed, or `o` to open it 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.
|
|
|
|
Last but not least, there's `:Git` for running any arbitrary command,
|
|
and `Git!` to open the output of a command in a temp file.

## Installation
|
|
|
|
If you don't have a preferred installation method, one option is to install
|
|
[pathogen.vim](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen), and then copy
|
|
and paste:
|
|
|
|
cd ~/.vim/bundle
|
|
git clone git://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive.git
|
|
vim -u NONE -c "helptags vim-fugitive/doc" -c q
|
|
|
|
If your Vim version is below 7.2, I recommend also installing
|
|
[vim-git](https://github.com/tpope/vim-git) for syntax highlighting and
|
|
other Git niceties.
|
|
|
|
## FAQ
|
|
|
|
> I installed the plugin and started Vim. Why don't any of the commands
|
|
> exist?
|
|
|
|
Fugitive cares about the current file, not the current working
|
|
directory. Edit a file from the repository.
|
|
|
|
> I opened a new tab. Why don't any of the commands exist?
|
|
|
|
Fugitive cares about the current file, not the current working
|
|
directory. Edit a file from the repository.
|
|
|
|
> Why is `:Gbrowse` not using the right browser?
|
|
|
|
`:Gbrowse` delegates to `git web--browse`, which is less than perfect
|
|
when it comes to finding the right browser. You can tell it the correct
|
|
browser to use with `git config --global web.browser ...`. On OS X, for
|
|
example, you might want to set this to `open`. See `git web--browse --help`
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
> Here's a patch that automatically opens the quickfix window after
|
|
> `:Ggrep`.
|
|
|
|
This is a great example of why I recommend asking before patching.
|
|
There are valid arguments to be made both for and against automatically
|
|
opening the quickfix window. Whenever I have to make an arbitrary
|
|
decision like this, I ask what Vim would do. And Vim does not open a
|
|
quickfix window after `:grep`.
|
|
|
|
Luckily, it's easy to implement the desired behavior without changing
|
|
fugitive.vim. The following autocommand will cause the quickfix window
|
|
to open after any grep invocation:
|
|
|
|
autocmd QuickFixCmdPost *grep* cwindow
|
|
