I use https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter

There's also https://github.com/TimUntersberger/neogit but I haven't tried it.

vim fugitive allows that too. You can examine a file and stage files or hunks under the cursor

I think gitsigns can do that too but not actively using this feature so far...

I've always used git add -p from the command line to interactively stage portions of files. I've had vim-fugitive installed for years but have too lazy to actually use it for much.

me too actually...I do prefer cli for most things but line-blame in gitsigns is nice

tbt, I usually do that sort of stuff on the command line too

if you’re using neovim and care about speed: https://github.com/lewis6991/gitsigns.nvim

beware though, I’ve find a few bugs using it so it might not quite be ready for primetime

vim-fugitive is a game changer. You can vimdiff against the staged changes, meaning you can directly edit what is staged. Very useful for splitting up commits below the per line level.

@URP769HJN vim-gitgutter is great, thanks
