> doesn't have features such as tabs The lack of tabs is a feature for some of us. After all, why have tabs when you can have tmux? :)
I needs to connects to multiple servers at the same time, and tmux sessions shouldn't be stacked. How can I do that without tabs?

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.
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
Just a sidenote, good on you for keeping SublimeText fast and optimized. There are way too many systems out there that have moved to the "put every single application ever inside a self-contained chrome". I usually recommend Sublime before I recommend Atom because of this.
"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.
When there's git cli, magit, fugitive (which you should be using if you're really really in need of a GUI (and which is also better than whatever the demo is showing))?
I'm all for paying for your tooling if you can afford it but overcharging much?

Nice to see you're using the same animation technique [1]. MP4 could not possibly provide this level of quality/size (~150KB per animation). Pngcrush is rather limiting though. I could compress the PNG textures by ~8% more with optimage [2] (I'm the author). And for newer browsers, serving the textures as brotli-compressed BMPs would actually make them >30% smaller (probably more with filtered but uncompressed PNGs).…
We built the animations using a slightly enhanced version of anim_encoder, which I currently have online at https://github.com/wbond/anim_encoder . One of the changes was adding pngquant which helped compress the images a bunch beyond pngcrush.
Also, most of those savings came from near-optimal Deflate compression.

If I need a common accessor, I'll pull it up some other way (either via history tools or actually finding it in Github).

Hi Jon, One feature that's missing from most of the git clients I use is the ability to do "branch1...branch2" diffs, ie, diff two branches from a common starting point but only show the new changes in branch2. Do you think this will be possible in Sublime Merge at some point?
