+summary: In which I share another snippet of code for vim.
+title: vim and git
+---
+
+idea from [Ovid's journal](http://use.perl.org/use.perl.org/_Ovid/journal/37966.html) (ovid is full of really good ideas for vim):
+
+to get a quick git diff in my vim session, put this in your .vimrc
+
+```vim
+map ,gh :call SourceDiff() " gh for git history
+
+function! SourceDiff()
+ let filename = bufname("%")
+ let command = 'git log -5 --pretty=format:"%h - (%ar) %an - %s" "'.filename.'"'
+ let result = split( system(command), "\n" )
+
+ if empty(result)
+ echomsg("No past revisions for " . filename)
+ return
+ endif
+
+ " get the list of files
+ let revision = PickFromList('revision', result)
+
+ if strlen(revision)
+ let items = split(revision, " ")
+ execute '!git diff ' . items[0] . ' -- "' . filename .'" | less'
+ endif
+endfunction
+```
+
+the output looks like this:
+
+ Choose a revision:
+ 1: ea0bb4d - (3 days ago) franck cuny - fix new_freq
+ 2: a896ac7 - (5 weeks ago) franck cuny - fix typo
+ 3: c9bc5fd - (5 weeks ago) franck cuny - update test
+ 4: e9de4be - (5 weeks ago) franck cuny - change the way we rewrite and check an existing url
+ 5: 3df1fd6 - (7 weeks ago) franck cuny - put id category
+
+You choose the revision you want to check the diff against, and you got a (colorless) diff in your vim buffer.
