Project & File navigation

• fzf.vim

  157 9,428 6.6 Vim Script

  fzf :heart: vim

For file navigation there is fzf.vim plugin: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim (I would say there is also plugin for fzf - lsp integration).

• telescope.nvim

  322 14,112 9.1 Lua

  Find, Filter, Preview, Pick. All lua, all the time.

  

use a fuzzy finder, I like https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim (when I was a vim user, it was https://github.com/kien/ctrlp.vim)

• Git

  287 50,207 10.0 C

  Git Source Code Mirror - This is a publish-only repository but pull requests can be turned into patches to the mailing list via GitGitGadget (https://gitgitgadget.github.io/). Please follow Documentation/SubmittingPatches procedure for any of your improvements.

  

Another way I like to open up a code base is by using git jump ... https://github.com/git/git/tree/master/contrib/git-jump.

• CTRLGGitBlame.vim

  5 9 0.0 Vim Script

  Append git blame information to the output of <C-g>

Last but not least, I use my own plugin that extends to include git blame information: https://github.com/andlrc/CTRLGGitBlame.vim This helps me understand the motivation behind a change. It also populates @c with the commit, making it possible to write things like:

• nerdtree

  77 19,281 7.2 Vim Script

  A tree explorer plugin for vim.

  

There are also file tree plugins if look into long and deep fs structures is helping you visually (long time ago nerdtree was popular: https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree but I don't use it anymore for years)

• fzf

  407 60,111 9.6 Go

  :cherry_blossom: A command-line fuzzy finder

fzf is an great tool to have in the shell, as well. It adds a ctrl-t keybinding that fuzzy-finds files from your CWD, that is just awesome. I've made lots of bash aliases that use it too. For example: alias g='cd ~/git/$(ls ~/git | fzf --cycle)' for changing directory to a project folder by fuzzy-finding its name.

• fzf-git.sh

  3 398 6.8 Shell

  bash and zsh key bindings for Git objects, powered by fzf

Which now I see has been migrated to https://github.com/junegunn/fzf-git.sh

• tig

  Text-mode interface for git

I use tig for browsing git. I've made some custom integrations in vim.

• vim-localvimrc

  10 475 3.0 Vim Script

  Search local vimrc files (".lvimrc") in the tree (root dir up to current dir) and load them.

A big part of 'project awareness' implies (to me at least!) that a project is organized in some meaningful way: test/view/model/service/domain files all relate to one another by their naming conventions and location in the project tree.When I start/join a project I look for documentation of the project's structure (or document it myself!). Then for vim:- use https://github.com/embear/vim-localvimrc - drop a .vimrc in the project so I can tweak vim to suit the project.

• vim-projectionist

  25 1,036 4.6 Vim Script

  projectionist.vim: Granular project configuration

use https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist - define the relationships between files (example: app/*js are 'source' files and test/*js are 'test' files). Projectionist sets up `:A` to jump to the 'alternate' file (jump between a 'source' file and its 'test' for instance), and `:Esource` and `:Etest` commands to find/navigate by the kind of file. This is very powerful IMO - for projects with good structure I can quickly jump between related test/source/model/blah files very quickly using these commands. For projects without good structure I rethink or get the team to talk about how we might improve the project organization (ie, lack of structure is a code smell!)

• vim-gutentags

  18 2,260 1.3 Vim Script

  A Vim plugin that manages your tag files

use tags, I like https://github.com/ludovicchabant/vim-gutentags for this. I might use my local .vimrc to tweak the config (exclude compiled source files and other uninteresting things)

• vim-grepper

  19 1,200 3.9 Vim Script

  :space_invader: Helps you win at grep.

use a grep tool plugin, I like https://github.com/mhinz/vim-grepper for this.
