Since then -Emacs's own support for Git got better than what was offered by these -modes. There are also popular 3rd-party Git modes such as Magit which -offer replacements for these. - -The following modules were available, and can be dug up from the Git -history: - -* git.el: - - Wrapper for "git status" that provided access to other git commands. - - Modern alternatives to this include Magit, and VC mode that ships - with Emacs. - -* git-blame.el: - - A wrapper for "git blame" written before Emacs's own vc-annotate - mode learned to invoke git-blame, which can be done via C-x v g. - -* vc-git.el: - - This file used to contain the VC-mode backend for git, but it is no - longer distributed with git. It is now maintained as part of Emacs - and included in standard Emacs distributions starting from version - 22.2. - - If you have an earlier Emacs version, upgrading to Emacs 22 is - recommended, since the VC mode in older Emacs is not generic enough - to be able to support git in a reasonable manner, and no attempt has - been made to backport vc-git.el. |
