A long time ago before git I've casually run into quilt[1]. Not really immediate but if you don't like git may be nice to use. On IETF[2] there's a quick tutorial too.

There are a few IMHO: magit [1] is a nice piece for Git. And there's vterm, if you wish to use a (usable) term or tmux/screen without leaving the editor, tramp mode [2] for remote files and last but not least ergoemacs [3] if you prefer the CUA style for generic commands (and reduce RSI). Oh, and forgot to mention helm [4] too...

For the keyboard shortcuts, there's ergo-emacs [1] a minor-mode that already rebinds most of the common shortcuts (open, copy/paste and so on).

Or, if you like vi(m), evil mode [2] should be good to go.

Not to mention:

- Oh-my-zsh has a lot of plugins for auto-completion

- FZF (fuzzy finder), for command history is a big hit (supports bash too)
