Interesting. It looks similar to the vim plugin fugitive: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2975

Fugitive is pretty great once figure out most of it.

Extradite is a wrapper around fugitive to provide a log view similar to tig's log view, but seemed a bit clunky to me last time I tried it.

I love it, shame that most of the time I work with Mercurial... Is there anything like a tig for hg? I haven't been able to find it.

It's fine. I have nothing against it. I just generally like doing as much as I can in the terminal, when that makes sense.

gitk is OK, but I like tig. Personal quirks.

fair enough. i'm just the other way around - i usually prefer terminal-based apps, but i really like gitk and git-cola. the gui really enhances the user experience for both those apps.
