Reverts feature introduced in 5c23cadf57
In order to use an escaped grep, please replace
`g:gitgutter_escape_grep=1` with:
let g:gitgutter_grep_command = '\grep --color=never -e'
Most colorschemes (e.g. solarized) don't give any thought to the
SignColumn highlight group so generally the sign column is ugly.
With this change vim-gitgutter defaults to making the sign column look
like the line number column.
Solarized users no longer need `highlight clear SignColumn` in their
vimrc :)
To stop vim-gitgutter from overriding the SignColumn highlight, add this
to your vimrc:
let g:gitgutter_override_sign_column_highlight = 0
Also don't pass buffer number to functions when they can look it up
themselves.
Using buffer numbers also eliminates any ambiguity which might arise
from symbolic links, where you have potentially two names for a file.
Thanks to @Z1MM32M4N for work on this (see #209).
Before this commit some Windows users saw the command prompt pop
up briefly, and/or the taskbar flicker, every time the plugin ran.
Now the plugin will use xolox's vim-shell and vim-misc, if they are
available and we are on Windows, to execute external commands. Xolox's
clever plugins avoid the command prompt popup and taskbar flicker.
Windows users with those plugins installed can opt out by setting a
variable in their vimrc.
Many thanks to @suxpert for the initial code.
This avoids shelling out twice per buffer: once to check whether git
knows about the file and once to perform the diff. Now we simply do
both in one external call.
Profiling showed external calls to git taking ~20ms. This doesn't seem
too bad but it adds up.
Profiling shows that `:sign place` and `:sign unplace` are slow despite
being native vimscript functions. This commit minimises the number of
such calls by only updating signs that have changed.
This was motivated by Vim regaining focus into a buffer with unsaved
changes, and the realtime diff being replaced with an out of date disk
diff. With this commit the realtime diff will be run again.
Use `cd` instead of `popd` because POSIX sh(1) does not have `pushd` and
also because this plugin did not pair its `pushd` with a `popd` anyway.
Use file redirection because POSIX sh(1) does not have anonymous pipes.
