## What it is
edamagit is a VSCode extension that brings the keyboard-driven Magit Git interface from Emacs to Visual Studio Code. It provides popups and status views for committing, branching, rebasing, stashing, and other Git operations entirely from the keyboard.

## Use cases
- use magit-style git interface in vscode
- commit and stage changes with keyboard shortcuts
- rebase and cherry-pick from within the editor
- manage branches, tags, and stashes without leaving vscode
- view git log and diffs in a magit status buffer
- get github pull requests and issues inside vscode via forge

## When to choose
- you are an Emacs Magit user switching to or working in VSCode
- you prefer keyboard-driven git workflows over mouse-based SCM panels
- you want a rich git interface (rebase, stash, worktrees) inside your editor

## When to avoid
- you only need basic git staging and committing built into VSCode
- you use an editor other than VSCode
- you prefer GUI-based git clients like GitLens or GitKraken

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: version-control, developer-tools, cli
- domain: developer-tools, version-control, text-editors
- platform: editor-plugin, cross-platform
- tags: git, magit, vscode-extension, keyboard-driven, source-control
