ANN: Dired-git-log - display Git logs in Dired buffers (fork of dired-git-info)
I have used Clemeras dired-git-info for a while, but it does not work well with my dired-auto-readme and dired-subtree from dired-hacks due to use of overlays.

Emacs Dired extras by Prot ?
As an alternative to do stuff manually as Prot does, you can also take a look at dired-hacks by Goljer, a.k.a Fuco, in particular dired-subtree and dired-filter. Dired-subtree let's you "toggle" directory listings displayed inline, similar as how other file managers expand/collapse directories in "list-mode". If you prefer using Dired interactively, that one is a game changer in my opinion. I have 'dired-subtree-toggle' on a tab key, so I can just quickly press tab to "expand/collapse" a folder. it is not same as pressing 'i' in Dired and having content of a directory inserted "below", but in my opinion, I never find the built-in Dired version very appealing. Subtree-toggle also skips extra headers for inserted directories, and I can still do all dired operations on directories as if they were inserted with built-in method that Prot demonstrates. I have also used dired-subtree-toggle to make three small functions on top of it to expand entire directory tree one folder at a time, all at once and to collapse them.

Move files in Emacs [OC]
On a similar note, dired-ranger has some awesome copy/paste/move functions.

Does any package exist to view code structure in a tree like manner?
I personally use just Dired, styled with some addons and a simple script where I use dired-subtree to expand/fold subdirectories one level at the time. You can use dired-subtree to expand one directory at a time.

Dirvish: a minimalistic file manager based on dired. Such as ranger, vifm, lf.
dired-subtree (from dired-hacks) - hit tab on a directory and expand/fold the subtree;

Use query-replace on an entire dired recursively (including subdirs and their contents)?
If you are using dired-hacks, it comes with something called dired-subtree.

Emacs 29.1 Stuttery scrolling with (pixel-scroll-precision-mode)
Agreed. I've had success with beacon-mode for the same purpose. Making C-v and M-v scroll by half pages also helps.

I cant see where cursor is, after 5 minutes, i found it is in node_modules, . Is there any way to add some pointers , all emacs themes pointers are dull in treemacs
I use beacon-mode for this.

Configuring emacs
I’d add that for 1) beacon is a good package. For 2), this may be an issue where you have multiple emacs configuration files. This is a serious problem. 3) be patient, and use the magic GC hack. To add to that, you should probably set the GC threshold to be high. 4) projectile? 5)emacs -nw.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing dired-hacks and beacon you can also consider the following projects:
solarized-emacs - The Solarized colour theme, ported to Emacs.
emacs-libvterm - Emacs libvterm integration
lsp-treemacs - lsp-mode :heart: treemacs
gcmh - The Garbage Collector Magic Hack
dirvish - A polished Dired with batteries included.
emacs-scroll-on-jump
dired-git-info - Show git info in Emacs dired
.emacs.d - My personal Emacs config with any quirks, oddities, bugs, and man-eating errors I live with on a daily basis.
.emacs.d - My current Emacs setup.
emacs-which-key - Emacs package that displays available keybindings in popup
use-package - A use-package declaration for simplifying your .emacs
github-orgmode-tests - This is a test project where you can explore how github interprets Org-mode files
