neogit VS vim-fugitive

I would use this feature of lazy.nvim in a plugin that I rarely need. Something neogit for example. I can spend hours coding without using it. In that particular case I think is nice to have the option to load it when I actually call it.

This looks very much like the Noevim plugin I began using about a month ago: neogit[0].

The keybindings were a bit rough, and it took me about an hour of use before I was really comfortable with the overall workflow. Once I was, though, I’ve found it to be much faster than my previous workflow (suspending neovim and using git directly in the shell).

Edit: FYI: I made a feature request and got the answer, that it it possible to visually select the files and discard them like this together.

This is what I use for general git interaction and it‘s pretty neat: neogit. Also integrates diffview

For neovim users, there's a work-in-progress clone, neogit: https://github.com/timUntersberger/neogit/

Some of my colleagues use emacs/magit, and after seeing how absolutely lovely the workflow is, I've put in a lot of work over the last few months expanding it. You can check out my fork here: https://github.com/ckolkey/neogit/

One thing I particularly like to tease my emacs' colleagues about is that my magit is faster than theirs thanks to neovim's async capabilities.

You could use neogit (https://github.com/TimUntersberger/neogit) for basic commands however I have found it's easier / more versatile to just use lazygit in either another tmux tmux window or within neovim itself.

The only thing I truly miss from Emacs is [Magit](https://magit.vc/) since I still consider it the best git wrapper available. It is just too good. Unfortunately [Neogit](https://github.com/TimUntersberger/neogit) is not quite there yet although I hope it makes it at some point. I didn't like [Fugitive]https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive), but I ended up finding a good enough workaround by using [Lazygit](https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit) through [Toggleterm](https://github.com/akinsho/toggleterm.nvim).

the only reason I do some git stuff in vim and not _always_ in the shell, is because tpope is very thoughtful and fugitive.vim provides nice ways to deal with hunks or hunk partials (visually selecting a range within a hunk, for i.e.)

I agree, navigating blame history is incredibly useful, if only to save you from asking the wrong person about a particular change.

Vim's Fugitive[1] can do this and also in Textmate to. So I would hope that most editor git plugins can.

Git: vim-fugitive and gitsigns.nvim

You'll want to invest the time in learning Magit, which will change your life once you get the hang of it (and I was a heavy user of Fugitive in Vim previously!), and it's unlikely you'll find a better integration with GDB anywhere else on the planet than with Emacs, though I can't say that empirically. You just need to take the plunge and start learning it, then cut over and take the hit in productivity one day when you're feeling adventurous. You'll ultimately become far more powerful than you've ever been. Especially if you delve into elisp over time. I use Spacemacs, which is bloated and has bugs, but it has so many features that I haven't undertaken the massive endeavor to replace it from scratch yet.

For an option that works on Vim, if you already use tpope's vim-fugitive, there's vim-rhubarb (for GitHub) and fugitive-gitlab.vim (for GitLab).

I replace vim-fugitive with :! git

I do think VSCode is a great tool and I recommend it frequently to people, but I still want to set the record straight here. Yes, vim is obviously limited in the sense that as a CLI app it doesn't draw it's own PDF or HTML windows, that's fair. But it can remote control your favorite PDF viewer or browser for roughly the same functionality. I'm currently writing my thesis using vimtex and it's quite smooth. And all the other stuff you mention is implemented quite competently by various plugins like vim-fugitive, coc.nvim, vimspector and copilot.vim.
