FTerm.nvim VS gitsigns.nvim

To achieve our goals of fingertip access nirvana, we are going to be using a plugin called FTerm.nvim.

i use F2 to toggle Fterm

IIUC this request https://github.com/numToStr/FTerm.nvim/issues/67 is also similar to your use case. I might implement this in FTerm.nvim but I have to study the client-remote thingy.

Have you checked out https://github.com/numToStr/FTerm.nvim?

gitui inside FTerm.nvim has been my preferred method to interact with git from within nvim. gitui has indeed proven to be a great frontend to git.

I did a bit of hunting and came across FTerm.nvim and I immediately notice that it is created and maintained by numToStr who also maintains Comment.nvim which is my preferred Neovim commenting plugin, which has always always worked great.

If you’re talking about the terminal inside a floating window, I think fterm.nvim is one which people commonly use.

I use https://github.com/numToStr/FTerm.nvim since you can specify in the setup which shell to use

It only work for very simple situation (project with only one build target), but it quite save a lot of time for me. For much complex situation, I prefer to write a singe bash script for specific project, and run them in FTerm

those are gitsigns. read :h gitsigns-highlight-groups. i think the first 3 ones (gitsignsadd, gitsignschange, gitsignsdelete) would need their background cleared.

I have installed Gitsigns in a Windows machine and when I execute the method diffthis it thinks that the new lines are differences.

Lack of tooling/LSP support compared to Lua. A rather popular neovim plugin, gitsigns, recently switched from teal to regular lua for (among other reasons) the tooling.

gitsigns.nvim

The closest one would be gitsigns

you can use gitsigns

https://github.com/lewis6991/satellite.nvim absolutely amazing choices, visual economy, integration with gitsigns and builtin vim features (marks).

It's also nice to ask him directly.

For a long time, I have been searching for solutions for asynchrony in Neovim, but what interested me the most was the one provided by gitsigns.nvim. Therefore, I decided to turn it into a separate module to make it easier to use async in Neovim. I have already created some usage examples.

Oh, the symbols are provided by gitsigns.nvim and I have set :h statuscolumn so that they appear to the right of the line numbers. The settings are done in plugin/statuscolumn.lua. I put custom single-file scripts under plugin and ftplugin, where they serve as light-weighted mini plugins, you can even find the prototype of deadcolumn.nvim there :)
