Community Feedback

We've heard you, loud and clear

For a while now, Git has consistently been one of Zed's most requested features. So many of you were waiting for this.

This is the only feature that’s holding me back from switching from Cursor!

@JcCastaneda05

@pashynnyk

Ex-Atom user here waiting for full featured Git integration before I can officially make the switch to Zed. I know you guys can do it!

Pumping this again. The only thing keeping me from switching is the lack of git diff UI, like in VSCode. Would love to have it.

Last week, for no reason, I decided to try @zed.dev. The only thing missing for me was the Git integration.

I’m trying out Zed again and the biggest thing missing for me is a Git integration and a spell checker

Waiting for git panel to completely switch from VS Code to Zed.

This would give me the final incentive to switch from VS Code/Webstorm/Neovim to Zed.

This is what I'm looking for and is probably the only thing keeping me from switching to Zed from VS Code.

@debkanchan

Me and the homies waiting for diff view to drop to finally ditch VS Code

And many more.

But, we're excited to share that...

It is here now

The fundamentals of Git, now in Zed

We wanted to build a Git integration that's native to the CLI, focused on speed, and thoughtfully integrated throughout the editor.

git addgit branchgit statusgit resetgit blamegit initgit diffgit checkoutgit pushgit pullgit fetchgit commit

LLM-powered Commit Message Generation

Git Panel Staging Area

Switch Branches, Push, Pull, and Fetch

Staging Controls

Project & Branch Switch

Editable Diff View + Staging Controls

And more...

All in the Command Palette

All Git-related actions can be quickly accesed from the Command Palette.

Collaborative Git Experience

Stage, co-author commit messages, analyze your diff, all collaboratively within Zed.

Quickly Make Checkpoints

Reach for the `commit` action in the Command Palette to rapidly commit your work.

Full package

Tightly integrated into the Zed experience

Git support has been designed to smoothly fit with every other native Zed functionality.

Every diff displayed in Zed is an editable surface, that allows you to edit your changes while staging and unstaging.

Keyboard-driven

No need to fall back to your mouse to navigate around Zed's Git features. Everything is at a keybinding away.

Integrated with Vim Mode

All Git-related keyboard interactions have been carefully transposed to work seamlessly with Vim mode.

Integrated with AI

We're kicking off with an LLM commit message generator, but so many more integration points between Git and AI will happen in Zed.

Words from beta users

Enhancing the Zed experience

Many developers who joined the private beta program are enjoying it so far.

@chronark_

finally @zeddotdev has a git ui for the terminal noobs like myself this was a major blocker for me when I wanted to switch from vscode.

César Couto

@zed.dev git integration let's goooo multibuffer staging view is incredible

Matt Silverlock

@elithrar

The Git integration into @zeddotdev is great so far. I'm hoping a lot of the diff viewing/patch application/staging review workflow feeds into the AI Assistant.
