Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
Finally, there is an awesome (in my opinion) add-on for dired called dirvish - makes dired more 'ranger' like if you're familiar with that. I absolutely love this package and its made dired's awesomeness even more awesome.

Are There Any Methods To Get Dired Mode To Look Like Midnight Commander?
I'm not sure if it's exactly what you want, but to me Dirvish is the best these days. It builds upon dired in a beautiful way

Which packages do you want people to work on more or add features to?
That said https://github.com/alexluigit/dirvish is amazing on one of my computers and broken on the other so if you could fix that and let me know please do.

Completion command for common file moving/copying commands
Thanks for the reply, I hadn't seen those last two posts which are nice. Lately I've been using Dirvish for those type of operations. But this isn't exactly what I was looking for. I may not have been totally clear.
- Idea/Question: Using "feature-full" packages (e.g. dired) for completion?

About to declare Emacs bankruptcy. Any advice for cool or new packages, defaults, or ideas I should use before I start building my init.el? Also interested in guides to using evil.
The file manager Dirvish. You know how the veterans say that Dired is the best file manager? Well, with dirvish even mere mortals can agree. It has panes, a pretty UI, and even pdf preview through pdf-tools.

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.
