Is there any other editor that comes close to JetBrain's Git integration? All I see is forks of forks of VSCode, and I'm wondering what the incremental gain of yet another does-the-basic-text-editing editors we need. This is in no way directed at OP, but it seems like a lot of wheels spinning around the world and surprisingly little progress at the Pareto limit.

Funnily enough, I actually prefer the VSCode model for git. On the occasions I use IntelliJ, I find the git actions spread across multiple panels or dropdowns. In VSCode, it's all in one place and the current state clearly visible. YMMV ofc.

Just to clarify on the vscode point, this actually isn't a vscode fork at all! It's built entirely from scratch in plain HTML/CSS/vanilla JS. But I completely agree about git UI, getting a really clean intuitive git integration working with the WebContainer filesystem is a huge priority for the roadmap.

But with the source being so light, it should hypothetically be very easy to implement features such as this nicely, without the massive overhead of navigating a HUGE codebase.

When you properly fork vscode, you have to wrestle with millions of lines of TS, strict extension APIs, complex IPC layers, and deep dependency injection trees just to change core UI behaviors.

(I googled that)

With OpenGravity, because it's just DOM manipulation and straightforward JS, adding custom native UI for Git would be way way simpler to wire up!

If you want to take a stab at implementing it, PRs are definitely welcome!
