#62Hi 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

#63On windows it treats .gitignore patterns as case-sensitive which differs from how git itself behaves.

Thanks for the kind words! There's some basic integration now, and we'll be adding more in the future. Right now, Sublime Merge will pickup installed Sublime Text packages (e.g., for syntax highlighting), and will also find Sublime Text when you choose Open in Editor from within Merge (this can be customised to something else though, of course).
It would be cool to have some integration going the other way. In particular I would love: 1. If Sublime Text could detect when a directory is a git root directory, and present a button to "open in sublime merge" (my sublime projects often span multiple git repos, so detection on a folder by folder basis would be key). The ability to configure this to use another git client would make sense, although personally Subli…

Awesome stuff, I'm loving it! I guess it's time do finally ditch GitKraken and SourceTree (: I have a couple questions: - Do you have a plan to add git flow integration? And what about interactive rebases? - Please, please, allow free users to use dark theme as well! Sublime Text license was really great, why add such a small change?
What does that mean? Isn't git flow just a branching model?

#68My first impression is extremely positive. Many actions, particularly the kinds of actions that a UI can really help with, are unnecessarily hard in other UIs I've used. Eg most UIs have a good File History window, but often finding the appropriate file is a lot of work (and by often I mean at least SourceTree, GitKraken and GitExtensions iirc). Eg something like you need to scroll through commits until you found one…
You can do that in GitKraken too btw, jump to file with Ctrl+P, "hist[enter]myfile[enter]". Or click on any recent commit, on the changes pane click "view all files" and you can jump to whatever file you want and see full history with right-click file history.

#69I normally use SmartGit, which is also quite snappy, though is a bit clumsy with its windows. But I think SmartGit still has quite a bit of an edge when it comes to presenting diffs and the branching history at the moment.
I'll give it a go for a bit though and see if it grows on me

Also I think they learned a lesson from how many people simply grew a habit to click "cancel" in the "please buy this" reminder in Sublime Text.
I'm so lazy and it's too easy to click "Cancel"... I have a license but a year after re-installing ST I still haven't added it :/
