org-mode and git

org-mode and git

[Richard Riley]

Hi folks,

I had used bog standard RCS behind vc before (works fine for little
stand alone projects), but recently loaded up the vc-git.el and added it
to the supported backends for vc but some problems trying to update my
org-mode install using it. Is it mature enough for this.

What, if any, git interface for emacs do you guys recommend?

Also does anyone have a working Xemacs git support?

You mean update org-mode from within Emacs?  Interesting.  I will have
to try that.

I know of two DVC [1] and xgit.  DVC is probably more comprehensive.

I would highly recommend magit[1]. I've been using it for a while now
and it far better fits around the way /I/ use git :)

You'll need a version[2] of git that supports --graph on the log
command.

Cheers,
Phil

Looks good, a shame vc-git doesn't seem to work though. I will look into
why as another set of non standard keys will make my head explode :-(
Having said that its time to do some housekeeping anyway as there are
few niggly little things I run into with packages and emacs 23 at the
moment.

C-x v v is a revelation in VC :-;

It's great if you're working on only one file and want to commit all of
its hunks, yes.

Cheers,
Phil
