git-blame.nvim VS VapourNvim

Sure, for the blame message I'm using git-blame.nvim

Two years ago this day, I made the initial commit to git-blame.nvim. And it turned out to be an important thing in my life. The plugin grew from a little thing I needed to something lots of people use (and love ^_^).

I use git-blame.nvim and I think it performs very well. Would you mind comparing blame_line.nvim with git-blame.nvim?

I'm the author of git-blame.nvim, it's a simple plugin that displays blame info in virtual text. There's an open issue for displaying the blame info in the status bar instead of virtual text.

Thanks for the reply. I need it for git-blame.nvim. In fact, what you said is exactly what I do in git-blame.nvim – I get all lines of current buffer, concatinate them with `\n` and pass to `git blame`. The problem is, the plugin gives incorrect output for last lines of files that have no ending. You can see this issue for more details.

OP and others: vim / neovim can be actual IDEs, with debuggers, autocomplete, filesystem selects, etc. There's even distros of neovim out there, like https://github.com/LunarVim/LunarVim & https://github.com/NvChad/NvChad & https://github.com/VapourNvim/VapourNvim (for people who don't want to fiddle with config or want starting points)

Havent tried it, but if you just want to test it out, a neovim distro like lunarvim or vapourvim might get you up and running with it quicker.

When you are talking about being as close as possible to an actual IDE, you should have a look at VapourNvim.

You can have a look at projects like nvchad, lunarvim or vapour nvim. However, those are just examples. You can open this link and use exactly what you want and how you want.

The main repository Wiki mentions the plugin nvim-tree.lua as its file explorer.
