Show HN: GitSavvy, Git integration in Sublime including per-line staging

I bought SublimeGit a while ago, and have been reasonably happy with it, but this looks much better (and has many of the features I would have wanted from sublime git).

How stable/well tested is it?

Looks useful. I'm not using ST3 yet; how stable is the current beta?

i use GitGutter and it works similarly but it's also available for ST2

Actually I'm pretty sure the feature overlap of this and GitGutter is nil.

GitGutter shows you the diff in the sidebar, whereas this is a general git usage tool (closer to SublimeGit), that has per-line staging (e.g. run git add on only some lines of this file) features that make tools like emacs's magit so powerful.

You're right. Is not much the sidebar as the linenumbers (I think the sidebar in Sublime is where the project is)

I noticed that the description says, "Inspired by SourceTree" for the line-by-line staging feature, but actually git-cola[1] invented that feature, before even git-gui, and SourceTree just copied us 8^)

Also, if you're going to have that feature you should consider implementing the entire thing ~ it's not enough to have line-by-line (un)staging. You also need line-by-line reverting of modified changes, and support line-by-line (un)staging while amending commits.

I'll definitely be sharing this with my sublime-using coworkers, very cool.

Rock stable for me. Haven't hit any bugs the last year or so.

This is cool! especially the menu in the editor, that's really awesome.

I just wish ST3 would hurry up - i've hung with ST2, finding some troubles with ST3. The last update to ST3 was aug 2014, and before that dec 2013 :(

I like rubymine and what it does, but it doesn't play well with my setup of one window per workspace desktop.

I use git-cola every day, very nicely done!
