What's the fastest way to get magit to refresh?
Run magit-refresh in spacemacs? The default binding of g is used for vim bindings.
Thus, I've been doing space-g-s, which is the global command.
If you use the latest develop branch and the keybinding is gr for magit-refresh.

M-x vc-diff is cool.
But not enough for me.
Is it possible to diff side-by-side in emacs like GUI diff tools ? (kdiff3, meld)
You must use vc-ediff (bound to "E" in my config published on https://github.com/fniessen/emacs-leuven/blob/master/emacs-leuven.el).
I have successfully installed hy-mode from https://github.com/hylang/hy-mode. I now can open a .hy file in emacs and have syntax highlighting, and editing with paredit is a joy.
I however, don't know how to start a REPL. At the bottom of the github readme, it says:
When in hy-mode, you can launch a Hy REPL by launching a Lisp inferior
process
M-x lisp-inferior-process
That function, however, is not defined for me. What else do I need to install or check to be able to use the repl for Hy?
I am currently using:
GNU Emacs 24.3.1.
Have you tried to set inferior-lisp-program to "hy" and then doing M-x run-lisp?
This is the standard way (or maybe just the "way I know about") of having an inferior lisp process.
As of version 1.0.4 of hy-mode, you can start a hy repl buffer in Emacs using M-x run-hy or use the default key binding of C-c C-z.
In any Emacs mode, including hy-mode, you can use M-x describe-mode or the default key binding of C-h m to show key bindings for the current mode.
The environment is Emacs 24.1.1 on Ubuntu. using Ipython for python programming.
The auto indent is works well when running ipython command on shell directly, but when i come to emacs run ipython there is no auto indent any more. and even worse when i type TAB it will prompt the Completion buffer.I also have searched this issue many times but still not found a practical method. as a result i have to enter space manually.
anyone could help to resolve this issue ?
1. auto indent on emacs ipython shell
2. disable completion on emacs ipython shell separately.keep the Tab-completion work when i am not in ipython interactive shell.
In emacs you can use python-mode, and from there send the code to *REPL* buffer with C-c C-c.
When you send the buffer for the first time, it asks you what executable you use for python, so you can use ipython, or other one.
Any invocation of ipython-shell should do a correct setup.
Please file a bug-report.
If running python-mode.el -- modeline shows "Py" --
please checkout current trunk first
When bazaar is available
bzr branch lp:python-mode
I was told that in ZSH you could do something like command and then when you hit up it would filter the history based on the given command. But when I try this it just cycles the history like bash does. Is this disabled by default?
Hit Ctrl+R, type some letters, it will find the previous command with these letters, keep hitting Ctrl+R to continue through the previous findings.
Works in bash, zsh (and other shells i suppose).
What i personally like to have is: type some letters, press Up, the previous commands starting with the same letters appear. Very powerful, i love it.
You have to bind the keys you want to history-beginning-search-backward and history-beginning-search-forward.
In case it's not enough for you, zsh has a lot of options, try to look in Zsh Line Editor and tell us.
For bash, less powerful but more common, Bash commands for history.
Use exclamation point:
> !<starts-with this string>
You can arrow up/down through all commands that started with that. I use "!v" all the time to get my previous command for opening a file with Vim.
You can also use a question mark to search beyond matching the beginning of the string,
> !?status
Can find "git status".
Use percol to dynamically search and navigate through your history with Ctrl-r.
install percol: sudo pip install percol
add the zsh-history-search code snippet to your .zshrc file.
After a Ctrl-r, you can see your whole history in the same window. Searching for a keyword (dynamically) narrows that list down. You can use key-bindings (like this emacs like config) to navigate up and down the list and eventually make a selection.
Here is a search for all sudo install commands available in history with sudo make install selected.
Enter issues the selected command.
We can also use fzf to fuzzy search the command history interactively.
Here is how to install:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.git ~/.fzf
~/.fzf/install
Say yes to all its configs. After that, restart your zsh shell, and press Ctrl-R, whoa, interactive command history search pops up. Enjoy!
With the vim keybindings activated in zsh you can use vi-history-search-backward (/) when in vi command mode.
That's a feature available in fish, but it seems like someone made a zsh plugin for it. It's not available in standard ZSH.
If you don't want to add any keybindings, you can search by default using Ctrl+R to move backward & Ctrl+S to move forward.
You can start search with any of the key shortcuts Ctrl+R or Ctrl+S
I was an Eclipse user, now I have to use Vim in my machine.
I used to "compare" a file I edited with a CVS repository to do merges an commit the files, using a context menu and my mouse.
Is this possible in Vim? Opening a vimdiff for a file before commiting, and commit it from vim itself?
And how is that supposed to work?
I'm supposing I would be editing a file. Then, I want to see the modifications. I run vimdiff in gvim, and a new window (or buffer) is opened. I run the modifications, save what is applicable (using vimdiff commands), and commit running another command.
Is this all transparent in vim? Do I have to keep getting out of vim to my terminal, or can all be done inside it?
Do I need to use some plugins, or just really simple functions inside my vimrc?
There is a couple plugins to integrate VCS to vim.
I personnally use vcscommand. It does at least the 2 things you're asking for: comparing from repository using vimdiff and commiting from within vim.
I personally just switch between vim and the terminal.
Usually I'd have several console tabs open at the same time (if you're on windows, Console can do that).
It depends on the VCS used, but you can linked that VCS with vimdiff (see git, for instance)
You could also try and integrate directly Vim into your Eclipse session with eclim.
(should you still be using eclipse. If not, I leave the following for others)
It does support the Eclipse local History.
