Origins
Hi guys, I’m remaking this project based on intellij-commiunity. Only a tiny part of it is finished.
I named it Jit (from IntelliJ Git / JetBrains Git) and drew the new Icon. You can open a project as in IntelliJ IDEA, and the Git ToolWindow will appear directly after you open it.
It all started with an issue on YouTrack: Make git client a standalone app
I think it very interesting. The Git client that comes with the JetBrains family of products is probably the best Git client I’ve ever used. So I plan to maintain the Git functionality as a separate Git tool.
General idea
I removed the entire Editor section for now, keeping only some of the associated ToolWindow: (Git / Commit / Pull Requests / Terminal / Notification).
It’s a lot of work, and as I mentioned before, there are a lot of dependencies between modules that need to be dealt with. I’m busy at work and usually have only little time for this. But seriously, I’m interested in this.
