Flog v2 Issues - README #91

Closed rbong closed 3 months ago

rbong commented 1 year ago

Flog v2 has been released and it comes with lots of changes.

How does it look?

the v2 commit graph

How can I upgrade to v2?

See the v2 migration guide

You will also receive deprecation warnings when possible

How can I revert back to v1?

Install Flog using the branch v1, ex. Plug 'rbong/vim-flog', { 'branch': 'v1' }

I used the alpha, how can I keep using v2?

The v2 branch that was being used during alpha is no longer available, switch back to the master (default) branch. In other words, install normally, ex. Plug 'rbong/vim-flog'

Why did everything change?

Flog was essentially a "hack" before, a wrapper around the system command git log --graph, making it slow, ugly, and limited. Fixing this requires drawing our own commit graph, which requires a real language, ex. Lua. Adding a new major dependency is not something everyone will like, which is why v1 is still available

Flog also had a number of other longtime issues that required breaking changes, which are being released at the same time
