INTRODUCTION *gitgutter-introduction*
GitGutter is a Vim plugin which shows a git diff in the 'gutter' (sign column).
GitGutter is a Vim plugin which shows a git diff in the sign column.
It shows which lines have been added, modified, or removed. You can also
preview, stage, and undo individual hunks. The plugin also provides a hunk
text object.
The signs are always up to date and the plugin never saves your buffer.
The name "gitgutter" comes from the Sublime Text 3 plugin which inspired this
one in 2013.
