I recently started using Git for my local revision control. Since I spend about 90% of my coding time inside the Vim editor, I went looking for a plugin that would make Vim play nice with Git. In this article I present two different vim plugins and explore their feature-set via screenshots.

This is when someone has to say:
"Vim is a great Operating System, it just lacks a decent text editor"
And then someone replies:
":set compatible"
Otherwise, very cool

Analogously, git is a decent content-addressable tree storage. Someone just needs to write a command line wrapper for it, and provide english localization for the error messages.

VCSCommand is a Vim Plugin that can handle multiple source control backends via Vim.

In its original form it only supports SVN, CVS, GIT and SVK, but you can install the following plugin which adds Hg support to VCSCommand.

I have tried a few GUI frontend to Git and so far found none that suits my needs. I hasn't tried this one for Vim, but I found that command-line Git is quite easy to learn and fast. I have extensively used GUIs for Subversion, but that is not required anymore with Git
