I am bit bummed that you have to pay for Git interface. Yeah, it is just 10€ / user, but still. You even get full games for 99 cents these days. And shouldn't this be a default feature in the first place.

Anyway, no-one is forcing anyone to buy it, so all good.

Games that sell for 99 cents sell in much larger quantities than a niche product like SublimeGit. As for whether it should be included by default: SublimeGit isn't built by the authors of Sublime Text, but by an independent author - and he needs to get paid for his work, too.

How it differs from magit or fugitive except price? I've tried magit and fugitive for some time, but as for me, adding this plugins to workflow just complicates tasks related to VCS. At the time of this writing, whichever editor/IDE I use, my VCS stay in command line.

> my VCS stay in command line You probably don't realize how much this slows you down.

Can you explain how ?

I use git on the command line too, it fits well with my workflow (branch features, "commit -a" when it seems relevant, rebase/squash when ready).

Maybe a more complicated workflow could justify an IDE plugin, but for me CLI is fine.

Not actually forcing you to pay for use - at the bottom it says: "You can try out SublimeGit for as long as you'd like, and there are no feature restrictions."

So, just seems to be a dark pattern leading you to BELIEVE you have to pay. However, if you like it, pay for it.

Looks good, I'll give it a try, but I have to mention this plugin as it deserves all the praise it can get!: https://github.com/jisaacks/GitGutter http://www.jisaacks.com/gitgutter

I've always found this plugin slow which is a shame. It's nice to visually see the changes made to a file.

If you are using ST3 you can use non blocking mode and GitGutter will run in a seperate thread.

EDIT: Here is the section on the read me about it: https://github.com/jisaacks/GitGutter#non-blocking-mode

You're right. Comparison to game prices was out of context.

Wow... So yeah, I made this. Woke up this morning to a slew of twitter mentions and quite a few orders. Thank you so much for the support!

I'm about to get on a 14 hour international flight in a couple of hours, but i'll be happy to answer any questions. Also, i'm tweeting from @SublimeGit every once in a while.

Any plans for mercurial integration?

Not at the moment, since I don't use mercurial myself. If there isn't a good mercurial plugin, then maybe that's for someone to look into? Writing a plugin for Sublime Text is quite pleasant (it's done in python).

hmm, i think i'll try a vim-gitgutter

I suggest this one: https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter

It's quite nice, but I would turn off live updating, as that slowed things down a bit for me. Updating on save works perfectly fine.
