This is really nice, but I wish the background color of the gutter would automatically match the rest of my background. The gray band [1] is pretty unappealing IMO.

Also noteworthy is that that the gutter only updates when the file is saved.

You can achieve that manually with `highlight clear SignColumn` in your colour scheme or ~/.vimrc.

I'll (I'm the author) probably make this the default because it seems quite a common wish.

This looks amazing. Nice work! Does it always diff with the last commit?

I've added it at the bottom of ~/.vimrc, but for some reason it doesn't work until I explicitly type `highlight clear SignColumn` while editing a document. Any ideas why this could be happening?

Great plugin by the way, super handy.

It'd be perfect if the signs changed in real-time without the need to save first. Awesome work though. Thanks Andy.

I had the same problem at first. Try putting it after wherever you're loading the plugin itself.

edit: Also, thanks airblade. I think I'm going to keep using this.

Great stuff, I was using svndiff before this but it was more of a miss than a hit, this seems to work nicely so far.

It diffs your working tree with the index (i.e. what a plain git-diff does). I plan to make it easy to `git-diff --cached` too.
