Using Guile for Emacs
> I would really like it if Magit was a standalone program, rather than an Emacs package, so that I could just switch to a more reasonable editor.
Always curious with folks who request this whether they've tried `tig` (https://jonas.github.io/tig/)?
Not sure what part of Magit you're looking for, but the basic workflow of jumping to changes and interactive staging works just as well to me in `tig` (with Vim) as Magit.

🦊 GitLab: Forget GitKraken, Here Are The Only Git Commands You Need
Use tig. This TUI (terminal user interface) is halfway between the GUI and the command line. It basically does the same thing as the previous command, but it’s easier on the eyes while allowing you to stay in the terminal. It will also make it easier to see the diff for a particular commit.

Ask HN: Interesting TUIs (text user interfaces), maybe forgotten ones?
https://github.com/jonas/tig is one of the first things I install on a new dev machine. It's a really nice UI for staging files or hunks. Since it's just a companion to the git CLI, it feels much more focused than full-blown git GUIs, and doesn't do anything magical.

Every Git Command I Use (Cheatsheet)
Related but I use tig, a TUI, a lot to examine the state of my working tree and index and stage/unstage/reset changes piecemeal. It works great.

Magit
I'd like to plug [tig](https://github.com/jonas/tig) for those who don't use emacs. I see lazygit recommended here too, but I've been using tig for years now and love it's simplicity.

Please, help with highlights.
those are gitsigns. read :h gitsigns-highlight-groups. i think the first 3 ones (gitsignsadd, gitsignschange, gitsignsdelete) would need their background cleared.

Gitsigns thinks that new lines in Windows are differences
I have installed Gitsigns in a Windows machine and when I execute the method diffthis it thinks that the new lines are differences.

Algebraic data types in Lua (Almost) post
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.

Hacky way to return to original window after using gitsign's `diffthis`. There must be a better way to do this.
