*fugitive.txt* A Git wrapper so awesome, it should be illegal Author: Tim Pope License: Same terms as Vim itself (see |license|) This plugin is only available if 'compatible' is not set. INTRODUCTION *fugitive* Whenever you edit a file from a Git repository, a set of commands is defined that serve as a gateway to Git. COMMANDS *fugitive-commands* These commands are local to the buffers in which they work (generally, buffers that are part of Git repositories). *fugitive-:Git* :Git [args] Run an arbitrary git command. Similar to :!git [args] but chdir to the repository tree first. *fugitive-:Git!* :Git! [args] Like |:Git|, but capture the output into a temp file, and edit that temp file. *fugitive-:Gcd* :Gcd [directory] |:cd| relative to the repository. *fugitive-:Glcd* :Glcd [directory] |:lcd| relative to the repository. *fugitive-:Gstatus* :Gstatus Bring up the output of git-status in the preview window. The following maps, which work on the cursor line file where sensible, are provided: next file previous file |:Gedit| - |:Git| add - |:Git| reset (staged files) C |:Gcommit| cA |Gcommit| --amend --reuse-message=HEAD ca |Gcommit| --amend D |:Gdiff| ds |:Gsdiff| dp |:Git!| diff (p for patch; use :Gw to apply) dp |:Git| add --intent-to-add (untracked files) dv |:Gvdiff| O |:Gtabedit| o |:Gsplit| p |:Git| add --patch p |:Git| reset --patch (staged files) q close status R reload status *fugitive-:Gcommit* :Gcommit [args] A wrapper around git-commit. If there is nothing to commit, |:Gstatus| is called instead. Unless the arguments given would skip the invocation of an editor (e.g., -m), a split window will be used to obtain a commit message. Write and close that window (:wq or |:Gwrite|) to finish the commit. Unlike when running the actual git-commit command, it is possible (but unadvisable) to muck with the index with commands like git-add and git-reset while a commit message is pending. *fugitive-:Ggrep* :Ggrep [args] |:grep| with git-grep as 'grepprg'. *fugitive-:Glog* :Glog [args] Load all previous revisions of the current file into the quickfix list. Additional git-log arguments can be given (for example, --reverse). If "--" appears as an argument, no file specific filtering is done, and commits are loaded into the quickfix list. *fugitive-:Gedit* *fugitive-:Ge* :Gedit [revision] |:edit| a |fugitive-revision|. *fugitive-:Gsplit* :Gsplit [revision] |:split| a |fugitive-revision|. *fugitive-:Gvsplit* :Gvsplit [revision] |:vsplit| a |fugitive-revision|. *fugitive-:Gtabedit* :Gtabedit [revision] |:tabedit| a |fugitive-revision|. *fugitive-:Gpedit* :Gpedit [revision] |:pedit| a |fugitive-revision|. :Gsplit! [args] *fugitive-:Gsplit!* *fugitive-:Gvsplit!* :Gvsplit! [args] *fugitive-:Gtabedit!* *fugitive-:Gpedit!* :Gtabedit! [args] Like |:Git!|, but open the resulting temp file in a :Gpedit! [args] split, tab, or preview window. *fugitive-:Gread* :Gread [revision] Empty the buffer and |:read| a |fugitive-revision|. When the argument is omitted, this is similar to git-checkout on a work tree file or git-add on a stage file, but without writing anything to disk. :{range}Gread [revision] |:read| in a |fugitive-revision| after {range}. *fugitive-:Gread!* :Gread! [args] Empty the buffer and |:read| the output of a Git command. For example, :Gread! show HEAD:%. :{range}Gread! [args] |:read| the output of a Git command after {range}. *fugitive-:Gwrite* :Gwrite Write to the current file's path and stage the results. When run in a work tree file, it is effectively git add. Elsewhere, it is effectively git-checkout. A great deal of effort is expended to behave sensibly when the work tree or index version of the file is open in another buffer. :Gwrite {path} You can give |:Gwrite| an explicit path of where in the work tree to write. You can also give a path like :0:foo.txt or even :0 to write to just that stage in the index. *fugitive-:Gwq* :Gwq [path] Like |:Gwrite| followed by |:quit| if the write succeeded. :Gwq! [path] Like |:Gwrite|! followed by |:quit|! if the write succeeded. *fugitive-:Gdiff* :Gdiff [revision] Perform a |vimdiff| against the current file in the given revision. With no argument, the version in the index is used (which means a three-way diff during a merge conflict, making it a git-mergetool alternative). The newer of the two files is placed to the right. Use |do| and |dp| and write to the index file to simulate "git add --patch". *fugitive-:Gsdiff* :Gsdiff [revision] Like |:Gdiff|, but split horizontally. *fugitive-:Gvdiff* :Gvdiff [revision] Identical to |:Gdiff|. For symmetry with |:Gsdiff|. *fugitive-:Gmove* :Gmove {destination} Wrapper around git-mv that renames the buffer afterward. The destination is relative to the current directory except when started with a /, in which case it is relative to the work tree. Add a ! to pass -f. *fugitive-:Gremove* :Gremove Wrapper around git-rm that deletes the buffer afterward. When invoked in an index file, --cached is passed. Add a ! to pass -f and forcefully discard the buffer. *fugitive-:Gblame* :Gblame [flags] Run git-blame on the file and open the results in a scroll bound vertical split. Press enter on a line to reblame the file as it was in that commit. You can give any of ltwfsMC as flags and they will be passed along to git-blame. In a blame buffer on any line, one can press to reblame at that commit, ~ to reblame at that commit's [count]th first grandparent (like HEAD~[count]), or P to reblame at that commit's [count]th parent (like HEAD^[count]). Press o or O to open up that commit in a horizontal of vertical split. Pressing q will close the blame buffer. :[range]Gblame [flags] Run git-blame on the given range. *fugitive-:Gbrowse* :[range]Gbrowse If the remote for the current branch is on GitHub, open the current file, blob, tree, commit, or tag (with git-web--browse) on GitHub. Otherwise, open the current file, blob, tree, commit, or tag in git-instaweb (if you have issues, verify you can run "git instaweb" from a terminal). If a range is given, it is appropriately appended to the URL as an anchor. :[range]Gbrowse! Like :Gbrowse, but put the URL on the clipboard rather than opening it. :[range]Gbrowse {revision} Like :Gbrowse, but for a given |fugitive-revision|. A useful value here is -, which ties the URL to the latest commit rather than a volatile branch. :[range]Gbrowse [...]@{remote} Force using the given remote rather than the remote for the current branch. The remote is used to determine which GitHub repository to link to. MAPPINGS *fugitive-mappings* These maps are available in Git objects. *fugitive-* Jump to the revision under the cursor. *fugitive-o* o Jump to the revision under the cursor in a new split. *fugitive-O* O Jump to the revision under the cursor in a new tab. *fugitive-~* ~ Go to the current file in the [count]th first ancestor. *fugitive-P* P Go to the current file in the [count]th parent. *fugitive-C* C Go to the commit containing the current file. *fugitive-a* a Show the current tag, commit, or tree in an alternate format. SPECIFYING REVISIONS *fugitive-revision* Fugitive revisions are similar to Git revisions as defined in the "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in the git-rev-parse man page. For commands that accept an optional revision, the default is the file in the index for work tree files and the work tree file for everything else. Example revisions follow. Revision Meaning ~ HEAD .git/HEAD master .git/refs/heads/master HEAD^{} The commit referenced by HEAD HEAD^ The parent of the commit referenced by HEAD HEAD: The tree referenced by HEAD /HEAD The file named HEAD in the work tree Makefile The file named Makefile in the work tree HEAD^:Makefile The file named Makefile in the parent of HEAD :Makefile The file named Makefile in the index (writable) - The current file in HEAD ^ The current file in the previous commit ~3 The current file 3 commits ago : .git/index (Same as |:Gstatus|) :0 The current file in the index :1 The current file's common ancestor during a conflict :2 The current file in the target branch during a conflict :3 The current file in the merged branch during a conflict :/foo The most recent commit with "foo" in the message STATUSLINE *fugitive-statusline* *fugitive#statusline()* Add %{fugitive#statusline()} to your statusline to get an indicator including the current branch and the currently edited file's commit. If you don't have a statusline, this one matches the default when 'ruler' is set: > set statusline=%<%f\ %h%m%r%{fugitive#statusline()}%=%-14.(%l,%c%V%)\ %P < ABOUT *fugitive-about* Grab the latest version or report a bug on GitHub: http://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive vim:tw=78:et:ft=help:norl:
