copilot.lua VS gitsigns.nvim

copilot.lua - copilot plugin written in lua

So I'm using zbirenbaum/copilot.lua and its cmp extension and it's not too shabby, but I'm having issues with the completion menu hiding the signature help popup (I'm using noice for that). Any hints on how to make signature help not fight with Copilot is highly appreciated 🙏🏻

Many plugins require you to also set them up before you can use them. make sure to refer to the documentation. Here is a link to the documentation for this copilot extension, which requires us to do something before the plugin actually works.

That functionality is present and was merged with https://github.com/zbirenbaum/copilot.lua/pull/127 , but the real question was how to do this via LazyVim's plugin loading or as some parameter to copilot.lua. I landed on just adding "vim.cmd(":Copilot disable")" to .config/nvim/init.lua. That turns it off globally after loading and is good enough until I find something more elegant. (I'm new to LazyVim (and neovim) and I'm trying to do it "the right way", but maybe I'm making it more complicated than it needs to be.

Alternative if you’re using neovim is to use https://github.com/zbirenbaum/copilot.lua

I'm using copilot-lua for my copilot client, and here's what I got after some quick testing

copilot.lua - 773, suggest, lua rewrite of copilot.vim, still hopping between the .vim and .lua to figure out if this one is just suggesting less but so far I like it a bit better.

Well if you're using the Tpope version, not sure what his set options were, but you should check out https://github.com/zbirenbaum/copilot.lua

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 :)
