Projectile is a great tool too. Along with helm and perspective modes, you can switch between projects with a few keystrokes. Since projectile looks for .git by default, you can have a window in each perspective dedicated to git if you so wish.

Updating code across multiple projects and committing is so easy and frictionless.

I have been using helm and projectile to easily find files. How do you use it to make edits too?

Press C-z. Multiple edits can be achieved through marking in helm. I need to get a grips with this part myself - sometimes it's just easier to use dired.

Have you figured out how to switch between recent list and other match lists? Sometimes get stuck when a prefix matches bang on in recent and need to get to the other matches.
