Tell HN: Edamagit (VSCode) is looking for a new maintainer

Edamagit for VSCode, the Magit clone I started as a COVID lockdown project, is now seeking a new maintainer. I can no longer support this project, but I believe both the users and the project deserve a chance to thrive under the guidance of someone willing and capable. Lately, my contributions have been to protect the extension from breaking changes in VSCode and to address critical bugs. I...

You should check out edamagit, magit for vscode! https://github.com/kahole/edamagit

edamagit for VSCode has evolved quite a bit since initially posting the alpha here over a year ago. It's still in preview, but more magit and forge features are now present.

In an effort to expose people who have never used Emacs to the wonders of magit, I've written a small tutorial covering the basics of operating edamagit here.

I'm not sure, haven't tried. Onivim2 looks cool! Looks like they support VSCode extensions, so hopefully it'll work without too much hassle. For the VSCodeVim extensions I recommend alternative edamagit keybindings to avoid collisions. These are available in the edamagit README.md

For now Github is the only supported forge. The repo has to have a github remote defined, and it will try to load issues and pull requests. The forge functionality is very new.

Yes, after installation you can use the default keyboard shortcut ‘Alt+x g’ to open the edamagit status view. You could also run the command ‘Magit Status’ from the VSCode command pallete. [1]

Great suggestions!
Re:Show HN: Scratch.js – Interactive JavaScript Scratchpad on Wednesday November 18, 2020 @04:37PM (#25142764)
This should now be fixed!

(Now fixed) Thanks for letting me know, there is indeed a small issue with the clear() function.

I considered supporting only plain-text, but I found the editable visible style tag very interesting. And I like the fact all the power of the browser is available, e.g canvas, 3d rendering, and simple stuff like headers and images. Of course, you can use only plaintext if you'd like.

Re:Show HN: Scratch.js – Interactive JavaScript Scratchpad on Wednesday November 18, 2020 @04:13PM (#25142515)
That would be awesome!
Re:Show HN: Scratch.js – Interactive JavaScript Scratchpad on Wednesday November 18, 2020 @01:45PM (#25140655)
Yes, by selecting the lines. Execution-method looks at selection first.

I find myself opening and using the web console to do simple tasks like string manipulation, maths, sorting often. I wanted a dedicated and persistent way to do this. And also just a place to keep notes, urls and stuff. So I made this "literate programming" notepad.

I'm also former Emacs user, and I like the lisp scratch buffer there, which is similar.

The source is very small and can be used both through the file:// and hosted http protocols. So you can easily make it do whatever you like. I could maybe expose some global variables to make it customizable, but I went for simplicity and smaller source instead.
Re:Show HN: Scratch.js – Interactive JavaScript Scratchpad on Wednesday November 18, 2020 @12:53PM (#25139917)
Yes, I guess. I'm pretty used to ctrl+shift+v-ing to remove any formatting. I'm now considering removing formatting by default. Know a simple way?
Re:Show HN: Magit for VSCode (Alpha) on Wednesday February 26, 2020 @02:06PM (#22426110)
The commands in the pallete can be triggered by a single key-press (indicated to the left of the item). This makes it only visually different from Magit.

Its not perfect, but close your eyes and its the same sequence of keys to triger an action.
