Concept
-
Fully asynchronous
Gin will use denops.vim as an implementation backend so everything will be asynchronous. -
Action based
Of course, like gina.vim or fern.vim. But it's more like fern.vim version (use mappings as actions) than gina.vim version (use isolated actions). -
Buffer based
All required information is saved as a buffer name so that users can restore the buffer with the correct content. This is the biggest difference from gina.vim which cannot restore the content from the buffer name. This is more like fern.vim which fully supports Vim's session feature. -
Independent commands
Not like gina.vim, gin will provide commands likeGinStatus
,GinBlame
, or so on. AndGin status
will execute a rawgit status
command and show the result instead. -
Fully interactive
Usually, when users executegit commit
on Vim's terminal, it opens Vim in that terminal (Vim in Vim). With gin, it will open a new tab in Vim instead like users are using edita.vim. Like this feature, I'd love to use Vim's prompt instead of terminal prompt to enter a password or whatever on git command execution so that for exampleGin push
with SSH passphrase works correctly (which is not possible with gina.vim) -
GitHub support
Not like gina.vim, gin will support GitHub integration in default.
