What are your must-have vim/nvim extensions?
gistory.vim search commits changing specific lines/text, diff commits, run code formatter for diffs

Ignoring mass reformatting commits with git blame
I work with one 10+ year old codebase where multiple people had different, conflicting, on-save code formatters. Ended up writing a vim plugin which runs code formatters on all sides before diffing https://github.com/Tarmean/Gistory.vim

Learning Rust, I didn't expect such a backstab
At the end of the day I don't really care which a project goes with, I've always just used vim-sleuth to automatically set my tab key to input whatever the current file's indentation is.

Trouble detecting shiftwidth correctly
VsCode has an internal function from auto-detecting indentation, while my config uses vim-sleuth with indent-blankline.nvim.

Builtin EditorConfig support
If you work a lot on legacy codebases, https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth is probably more what you need than editorconfig, as it will work even when one is not present.

New plugin for handling soft/hard line wrapping - wrapping.nvim
The primary advantage of using it is that it has built in heuristics for detecting line wrapping when opening a file (with some Treesitter magic for Markdown to make it more accurate), and also allows for manual swapping between wrapping types. You can think of it as the wrapping equivalent to vim-sleuth.

How do I force Neovim to always give me two space indents (or the correct indent) everywhere.
I just found about Tim Pope's sleuth: https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth It supports editorconfig but it also seems to have just better heuristics when an editorconfig file isn't present, so I just decided to replace `editorconfig-vim` with it.
