-%description
-A Vim plugin which shows a git diff in the sign column. It shows which lines
-have been added, modified, or removed. You can also preview, stage, and undo
-individual hunks; and stage partial hunks. The plugin also provides a hunk
-text object.
-
-The signs are always up to date and the plugin never saves your buffer.
-
-The name "gitgutter" comes from the Sublime Text 3 plugin which inspired this
-in 2013.
