vim-min-git-status

A minimal replacement for fugitive's Gstatus command. Uses git status --short to render status which keeps things concise and clean.

What are the advantages over Gstatus?

Space conscious (See screenshots below)
- Same information conveyed in fewer lines
- Status window automatically resizes to fit its content
More file shortcuts
- Press t on a file to open it in a new tab
- Press v on a file to open it in a new vertical split
- Press s on a file to open it in a new horizontal split
Files don't move or re-order themselves when staging / unstaging
- Files always remain in alphabetical order instead of being grouped by their status in the git index
