INTRODUCTION *gitsigns*
Gitsigns is a plugin for Neovim that provides integration with Git via a
feature set which includes (but not limited to):
• Provides signs in the |signcolumn| to show changed/added/removed lines.
• Mappings to operate on hunks to stage, undo or reset against Git's index.
Gitsigns is implemented entirely in Lua which is built into Neovim and
requires no external dependencies other than git. This is unlike other plugins
that require python, node, etc, which need to communicate with Neovim using
|RPC|. By default, Gitsigns also uses Neovim's built-in diff library
(`vim.diff`) unlike other similar plugins that need to run `git-diff` as an
external process which is less efficient, has tighter bottlenecks and requires
file IO.
==============================================================================
USAGE *gitsigns-usage*
For basic setup with all batteries included:
>
require('gitsigns').setup()
<
Configuration can be passed to the setup function. Here is an example with most
of the default settings:
>
require('gitsigns').setup {
signs = {
add = {hl = 'GitSignsAdd' , text = '│', numhl='GitSignsAddNr' , linehl='GitSignsAddLn'},
change = {hl = 'GitSignsChange', text = '│', numhl='GitSignsChangeNr', linehl='GitSignsChangeLn'},
delete = {hl = 'GitSignsDelete', text = '_', numhl='GitSignsDeleteNr', linehl='GitSignsDeleteLn'},
topdelete = {hl = 'GitSignsDelete', text = '‾', numhl='GitSignsDeleteNr', linehl='GitSignsDeleteLn'},
changedelete = {hl = 'GitSignsChange', text = '~', numhl='GitSignsChangeNr', linehl='GitSignsChangeLn'},
},
signcolumn = true, -- Toggle with `:Gitsigns toggle_signs`
numhl = false, -- Toggle with `:Gitsigns toggle_numhl`
linehl = false, -- Toggle with `:Gitsigns toggle_linehl`
word_diff = false, -- Toggle with `:Gitsigns toggle_word_diff`
watch_gitdir = {
interval = 1000,
follow_files = true
},
attach_to_untracked = true,
current_line_blame = false, -- Toggle with `:Gitsigns toggle_current_line_blame`
current_line_blame_opts = {
virt_text = true,
virt_text_pos = 'eol', -- 'eol' | 'overlay' | 'right_align'
delay = 1000,
ignore_whitespace = false,
},
current_line_blame_formatter = '<author>, <author_time:%Y-%m-%d> - <summary>',
sign_priority = 6,
update_debounce = 100,
status_formatter = nil, -- Use default
max_file_length = 40000, -- Disable if file is longer than this (in lines)
preview_config = {
-- Options passed to nvim_open_win
border = 'single',
style = 'minimal',
relative = 'cursor',
row = 0,
col = 1
},
yadm = {
enable = false
},
}

==============================================================================
CONFIGURATION *gitsigns-config*
This section describes the configuration fields which can be passed to
|gitsigns.setup()|. Note fields of type `table` may be marked with extended
meaning the field is merged with the default, with the user value given higher
precedence. This allows only specific sub-fields to be configured without
having to redefine the whole field.
signs *gitsigns-config-signs*
Type: `table[extended]`
Default: >
{
add = {hl = 'GitSignsAdd' , text = '┃', numhl='GitSignsAddNr' , linehl='GitSignsAddLn' },
change = {hl = 'GitSignsChange', text = '┃', numhl='GitSignsChangeNr', linehl='GitSignsChangeLn' },
delete = {hl = 'GitSignsDelete', text = '▁', numhl='GitSignsDeleteNr', linehl='GitSignsDeleteLn' },
topdelete = {hl = 'GitSignsDelete', text = '▔', numhl='GitSignsDeleteNr', linehl='GitSignsDeleteLn' },
changedelete = {hl = 'GitSignsChange', text = '~', numhl='GitSignsChangeNr', linehl='GitSignsChangeLn' },
}
<
Configuration for signs:
• `hl` specifies the highlight group to use for the sign.
• `text` specifies the character to use for the sign.
• `numhl` specifies the highlight group to use for the number column
(see |gitsigns-config.numhl|).
• `linehl` specifies the highlight group to use for the line
(see |gitsigns-config.linehl|).
• `show_count` to enable showing count of hunk, e.g. number of deleted
lines.
Note if a highlight is not defined, it will be automatically derived by
searching for other defined highlights in the following order:
• `GitGutter*`
• `Signify*`
• `Diff*Gutter`
• `diff*`
• `Diff*`
For example if `GitSignsAdd` is not defined but `GitGutterAdd` is defined,
then `GitSignsAdd` will be linked to `GitGutterAdd`.
keymaps *gitsigns-config-keymaps*
DEPRECATED
config.keymaps is now deprecated. Please define mappings in config.on_attach() instead.
Type: `table`, Default: `{}`
Keymaps to set up when attaching to a buffer.
Each key in the table defines the mode and key (whitespace delimited)
for the mapping and the value defines what the key maps to. The value
can be a table which can contain keys matching the options defined in
|map-arguments| which are: `expr`, `noremap`, `nowait`, `script`, `silent`
and `unique`. These options can also be used in the top level of the
table to define default options for all mappings.
Since this field is not extended (unlike |gitsigns-config-signs|),
mappings defined in this field can be disabled by setting the whole field
to `{}`, and |gitsigns-config-on_attach| can instead be used to define
mappings.
on_attach *gitsigns-config-on_attach*
Type: `function`, Default: `nil`
Callback called when attaching to a buffer. Mainly used to setup keymaps
when `config.keymaps` is empty. The buffer number is passed as the first
argument.
This callback can return `false` to prevent attaching to the buffer.
Example: >
on_attach = function(bufnr)
if vim.api.nvim_buf_get_name(bufnr):match(<PATTERN>) then
-- Don't attach to specific buffers whose name matches a pattern
return false
end
-- Setup keymaps
vim.api.nvim_buf_set_keymap(bufnr, 'n', 'hs', '<cmd>lua require"gitsigns".stage_hunk()<CR>', {})
... -- More keymaps
end
<
watch_gitdir *gitsigns-config-watch_gitdir*
Type: `table`
Default: >
{
interval = 1000,
follow_files = true
}
<
When opening a file, a libuv watcher is placed on the respective
`.git` directory to detect when changes happen to use as a trigger to
update signs.
Fields: ~
• `interval`:
Interval the watcher waits between polls of the gitdir in milliseconds.
• `follow_files`:
If a file is moved with `git mv`, switch the buffer to the new location.
sign_priority *gitsigns-config-sign_priority*
Type: `number`, Default: `6`
Priority to use for signs.
signcolumn *gitsigns-config-signcolumn*
Type: `boolean`, Default: `true`
Enable/disable symbols in the sign column.
When enabled the highlights defined in `signs.*.hl` and symbols defined
in `signs.*.text` are used.
numhl *gitsigns-config-numhl*
Type: `boolean`, Default: `false`
Enable/disable line number highlights.
When enabled the highlights defined in `signs.*.numhl` are used. If
the highlight group does not exist, then it is automatically defined
and linked to the corresponding highlight group in `signs.*.hl`.
linehl *gitsigns-config-linehl*
Type: `boolean`, Default: `false`
Enable/disable line highlights.
When enabled the highlights defined in `signs.*.linehl` are used. If
the highlight group does not exist, then it is automatically defined
and linked to the corresponding highlight group in `signs.*.hl`.
show_deleted *gitsigns-config-show_deleted*
Type: `boolean`, Default: `false`
Show the old version of hunks inline in the buffer (via virtual lines).
Note: Virtual lines currently use the highlight `GitSignsDeleteVirtLn`.
diff_opts *gitsigns-config-diff_opts*
Type: `table[extended]`, Default: derived from 'diffopt'
Diff options.
Fields: ~
• algorithm: string
Diff algorithm to use. Values:
• "myers" the default algorithm
• "minimal" spend extra time to generate the
smallest possible diff
• "patience" patience diff algorithm
• "histogram" histogram diff algorithm
• internal: boolean
Use Neovim's built in xdiff library for running diffs.
Note Neovim v0.5 uses LuaJIT's FFI interface, whereas v0.5+ uses
`vim.diff`.
• indent_heuristic: boolean
Use the indent heuristic for the internal
diff library.
• vertical: boolean
Start diff mode with vertical splits.
base *gitsigns-config-base*
Type: `string`, Default: index
The object/revision to diff against.
See |gitsigns-revision|.
count_chars *gitsigns-config-count_chars*
Type: `table`
Default: >
{
[1] = '1', -- '₁',
[2] = '2', -- '₂',
[3] = '3', -- '₃',
[4] = '4', -- '₄',
[5] = '5', -- '₅',
[6] = '6', -- '₆',
[7] = '7', -- '₇',
[8] = '8', -- '₈',
[9] = '9', -- '₉',
['+'] = '>', -- '₊',
}
<
The count characters used when `signs.*.show_count` is enabled. The
`+` entry is used as a fallback. With the default, any count outside
of 1-9 uses the `>` character in the sign.
Possible use cases for this field:
• to specify unicode characters for the counts instead of 1-9.
• to define characters to be used for counts greater than 9.
status_formatter *gitsigns-config-status_formatter*
Type: `function`
Default: >
function(status)
local added, changed, removed = status.added, status.changed, status.removed
local status_txt = {}
if added and added > 0 then table.insert(status_txt, '+'..added ) end
if changed and changed > 0 then table.insert(status_txt, '~'..changed) end
if removed and removed > 0 then table.insert(status_txt, '-'..removed) end
return table.concat(status_txt, ' ')
end
<
Function used to format `b:gitsigns_status`.

COMMAND *gitsigns-command*
*:Gitsigns*
:Gitsigns {subcmd} {args} Run a Gitsigns command. {subcmd} can be any
function documented in |gitsigns-functions|.
Each argument in {args} will be attempted to be
parsed as a Lua value using `loadstring`, however
if this fails the argument will remain as the
string given by |<f-args>|.
Note this command is equivalent to:
`:lua require('gitsigns').{subcmd}({args})`
Examples: >
:Gitsigns diffthis HEAD~1
:Gitsigns blame_line
:Gitsigns toggle_signs
:Gitsigns toggle_current_line_blame
:Gitsigns change_base ~
:Gitsigns reset_buffer
:Gitsigns change_base nil true
==============================================================================
SPECIFYING OBJECTS *gitsigns-object* *gitsigns-revision*
Gitsigns objects are Git revisions as defined in the "SPECIFYING REVISIONS"
section in the gitrevisions(7) man page. For commands that accept an optional
base, the default is the file in the index. Examples:
Object Meaning ~
@ Version of file in the commit referenced by @ aka HEAD
main Version of file in the commit referenced by main
main^ Version of file in the parent of the commit referenced by main
main~ "
main~1 "
main...other Version of file in the merge base of main and other
@^ Version of file in the parent of HEAD
@~2 Version of file in the grandparent of HEAD
92eb3dd Version of file in the commit 92eb3dd
:1 The file's common ancestor during a conflict
:2 The alternate file in the target branch during a conflict
==============================================================================
STATUSLINE *gitsigns-statusline*
*b:gitsigns_status* *b:gitsigns_status_dict*
The buffer variables `b:gitsigns_status` and `b:gitsigns_status_dict` are
provided. `b:gitsigns_status` is formatted using `config.status_formatter`
. `b:gitsigns_status_dict` is a dictionary with the keys:
• `added` - Number of added lines.
• `changed` - Number of changed lines.
• `removed` - Number of removed lines.
• `head` - Name of current HEAD (branch or short commit hash).
• `root` - Top level directory of the working tree.
• `gitdir` - .git directory.
Example:
>
set statusline+=%{get(b:,'gitsigns_status','')}
<
*b:gitsigns_head* *g:gitsigns_head*
Use `g:gitsigns_head` and `b:gitsigns_head` to return the name of the current
HEAD (usually branch name). If the current HEAD is detached then this will be
a short commit hash. `g:gitsigns_head` returns the current HEAD for the
current working directory, whereas `b:gitsigns_head` returns the current HEAD
for each buffer.
*b:gitsigns_blame_line_dict*
If |gitsigns-config-current_line_blame| is enabled, then contains dictionary
of the blame object for current line. For complete list of keys, see the
{blame_info} argument from |gitsigns-config-current_line_blame_formatter|.
==============================================================================
TEXT OBJECTS *gitsigns-textobject*
Since text objects are defined via keymaps, these are exposed and configurable
via the config, see |gitsigns-config-keymaps|. The lua implementation is
exposed through |gitsigns.select_hunk()|.
