Looks great Jon, happy you are expanding the Sublime family. Can I suggest Sublime Terminal as a possible addition? I'd happily pay for a decent terminal experience on Windows and with your cross platform toolkit it looks like you could deliver that. ConEmu et al just don't do it for me.

I would keep an eye out on alacritty. It's a blazingly fast gpu-accelerared terminal emulator for Unix (currently) written in rust. According to their 0.2.0 announcement post, where they added scrollback support, Windows is next on the Roadmap.

Thanks, I think I'd seen this one in the past but had ruled it out due to no Windows support (at the time).

Edit: Ah, also "doesn't have features such as tabs" ruled it out for me.

Shameless plug: if you're looking for a file manager inspired by ST, check out (my) https://fman.io

I don't really have a use case for a file manager, but I love your https://fman.io/blog/transparency/#open-source-promise :)

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It'd be nice if there was a command line option for this actually. I have my machine setup almost entirely automated, but this is one of the manual steps I have to do.

As far as I know, it used to be just a matter of writing the plaintext license into the appropriate file: https://forum.sublimetext.com/t/license-installation-silentl...

Awesome – thanks for sharing!

Also, if you can rename all these opaque commands to be more user friendly :) even if this means adding more commands, I think it’s worth it. “Rebase” should be the first victim

Alas, one of our key principles is to not hide or rename anything in Git, so your knowledge from using Git on the command line transfers to and from Sublime Merge.

Are UI translations possible? If so, and someone can replace "Rebase" in the translation with another word, it's possible.

Bonus if the other strings contain placeholders e.g. "Interactive #{rebase|ucfirst}" to reduce the changes.

Bravo Jon, SourceTree has been sucking more and more recently, and as a Windows & Mac user I'm looking forward to trying this out.

Hi HN - Jon Skinner here, I made Sublime Text and Sublime Merge, alongside the rest of the Sublime HQ programming team - Will, Dylan and Benjamin. Let me know if you have any questions! Edit: there's also the announcement blog post, at https://www.sublimetext.com/blog/articles/sublime-merge

Hello fellow Sydney-sider! This looks amazing! If this is half as snappy as Sublime Text I reckon it'll be a winner! Good job Sublime Team! :)

"Conflicts are presented with a 3-pane view. On the left are your changes and on the right are theirs. In the center pane is the resolved text"

They are missing a pane then. A 3-way merge involves your changes, others changes, a common ancestor, and the resolved text. kdiff3, Beyond Compare, and very recent versions of emacs are the only tools that I've seen that present this properly.

Do you really want to take away resouces from SublimeText development? Now, that also SublimeMerge is on the plan?

With the new Windows Console API we can assume, that people will start to use it.

@jskinner We need a built-in console/terminal and better Javascript intellisense for Sublime text; I hope the Sublime Merge and Sublime Text will fit together perfectly. All the best.

This has already set a high bar for a terminal inside Sublime: https://github.com/randy3k/Terminus

I don't want to take away from anything, but I think resourcing appropriately is a problem for Jon not for me :)
