I wrote a git plugin for Sublime Text 2.
I’d decided to try Sublime out for work to see how it compared to TextMate… and thus some degree of git integration was required. Given that it’s been out since January, I was surprised that there wasn’t already a solid git plugin.
I did find this one, admittedly, but I decided that I didn’t like how it fit in with Sublime. It’s built around menus and keybinds, whereas I felt that setting everything up as commands in the palette and hooking as much stuff as I could into the fuzzy search was the way to go.
Working on the plugin was a good exercise in getting me used to Sublime. I’m fairly sold on it as a result. It’s philosophically somewhat similar to TextMate, but with some of TextMate’s rough edges smoothed out.
(Short rant: if the recently announced TextMate2 alpha doesn’t get rid of the single-character undo buffer… I don’t know what I’ll do. It’s certainly the biggest single complaint I have about TextMate nowadays.)
Many thanks to you for your work on the Sublime Git plugin. This was the last plugin I was waiting for before my business goes full-speed into Sublime and uses it as their primary IDE (with PHP debugging plugins, etc).
