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.

I hope that for 10€ most people will find it worth it. If you've already spent 60$ or more on Sublime Text and upgrades, I can see why this might seem weird. However, as the homepage says you can basically install it and use it for free as long as you like. You'll get a popup occasionally (if you do use it), but that's the only "restriction".

Also, for a free alternative, I have to mention https://github.com/kemayo/sublime-text-git which inspired SublimeGit. There are way more people using this, and it's been around forever. Personally I like mine better of course, but I realize that different people need different things :-)

Feedback on site: adopt the same demo as http://www.sublimetext.com/ , it's incredible.

I know... It's been on the todo list forever. Hopefully I'll get around to it soon. But to be honest, I'd much rather spend the time adding features to SublimeGit itself.

The existing git sublime plugin shows a diff when committing. That on it's own is enough to keep me using it instead of switching, which is a shame as this does everything else better

You can actually turn on verbose commit messages by using the setting git_commit_verbose. Have a look in the default config for SublimeGit. If you do that, it'll add the diff, and even syntax highlight it for you.

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.

It is a little bit of a weird bastard child of the ideas in magit and fugitive, coming from vim and fugitive myself, but having always admired the workflow of magit. Mix that with whatever is possible interface-wise in Sublime Text, and you have SublimeGit.

I think it depends a lot on your workflow. If you're comfortable with, and used to, the command line this might not be for you. But for easy staging and committing of individual files/hunks I find it very useful. Also, even if you're just using Sublime Text as your commit message editor, this will give you color highlighting of you commit message, including gently nudging you towards good practices for commit messages.

What does this have over say, git gutter, which gives me at-a-glance change information to my current file?

This has committing, staging, pushing, pulling etc. Actually, a lot of people seem to be using this alongside GitGutter, since their functionality is very much complimentary. See this issue for instance: https://github.com/SublimeGit/SublimeGit/issues/27

Definitely encouraging to see more polished premium Sublime plugins.

Just to show some love to the other authors of paid Sublime Text plugins (which I can remember right now):

LaTeXing: http://www.latexing.com/

Sublimerge: http://www.sublimerge.com/

SFTP: http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/sftp

SVN: http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/svn

I already use and highly recommend SFTP, and will definitely check out Sublimerge. Thanks for the tip!

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.

I just downloaded this and it's everything I ever dreamed it could be. Thank you.

I use this mainly for "Git: Diff Current File". It's much easier to see in Sublime than Terminal for me.

I just discovered that there is a nice plugin for visually diffing and merging files in Sublime Text (both 2 and 3) - Sublimerge (http://www.sublimerge.com/)
