It's magit! A Emacs mode for Git. I wrote magit while learning about git and trying to figure out how I would be using git in a 'natural' way. Magit will grow and hopefully become more coherent as I learn more about git and good ways to use it. Feedback is welcome! * Installing Magit can be installed with the popular recipe of $ ./autogen.sh # If you got the sources directly from Git $ ./configure $ make install This will put magit.el into /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp, where Emacs should be able to find it. Then add (require 'magit) to your .emacs file. * Getting started To get started with magit, open any file in a git repository in Emacs and run 'M-x magit-status'. Read the online help of magit-mode ('C-h m' in the magit buffer), make some changes to your files, and try to commit them. * Learning more The Magit User Manual describes things with more words than the online help. You can read it in Emacs with 'C-u C-h i magit.info' for example, or on the web at http://zagadka.vm.bytemark.co.uk/magit/magit.html If you have questions, please use the mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/magit/ Magit's web home is currently at http://zagadka.vm.bytemark.co.uk/magit/
