+# fugitive.vim
+
+I'm not going to lie to you; fugitive.vim may very well be the best
+Git wrapper of all time. Check out these features:
+
+View any blob, tree, commit, or tag in the repository with `:Gedit` (and
+`:Gsplit`, `:Gvsplit`, `:Gtabedit`, ...). Edit a file in the index and
+write to it to stage the changes. Use `:Gdiff` to bring up the staged
+version of the file side by side with the working tree version and use
+Vim's diff handling capabilities to stage a subset of the file's
+changes.
+
+Bring up the output of `git status` with `:Gstatus`. Press `-` to
+`add`/`reset` a file's changes, or `p` to `add`/`reset` `--patch` that
+mofo. And guess what `:Gcommit` does!
+
+`:Gblame` brings up an interactive vertical split with `git blame`
+output. Press enter on a line to edit the commit where the line
+changed, or `o` to open it in a split. When you're done, use `:Gedit`
+in the historic buffer to go back to the work tree version.
+
+`:Gmove` does a `git mv` on a file and simultaneously renames the
+buffer. `:Gremove` does a `git rm` on a file and simultaneously deletes
+the buffer.
+
+Use `:Ggrep` to search the work tree (or any arbitrary commit) with
+`git grep`, skipping over that which is not tracked in the repository.
+`:Glog` loads all previous revisions of a file into the quickfix list so
+you can iterate over them and watch the file evolve!
+
+`:Gread` is a variant of `git checkout -- filename` that operates on the
+buffer rather than the filename. This means you can use `u` to undo it
+and you never get any warnings about the file changing outside Vim.
+`:Gwrite` writes to both the work tree and index versions of a file,
+making it like `git add` when called from a work tree file and like
+`git checkout` when called from the index or a blob in history.
+
+Use `:Gbrowse` to open the current file on GitHub, with optional line
+range (try it in visual mode!). If your current repository isn't on
+GitHub, `git instaweb` will be spun up instead.
+
+Add `%{fugitive#statusline()}` to `'statusline'` to get an indicator
+with the current branch in (surprise!) your statusline.
+
+Last but not least, there's `:Git` for running any arbitrary command,
+and `Git!` to open the output of a command in a temp file.

+## Installation
+
+If you don't have a preferred installation method, I recommend
+installing [pathogen.vim](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen), and
+then simply copy and paste:
+
+ cd ~/.vim/bundle
+ git clone git://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive.git
+
+Once help tags have been generated, you can view the manual with
+`:help fugitive`.
+
+If your Vim version is below 7.2, I recommend also installing
+[vim-git](https://github.com/tpope/vim-git) for syntax highlighting and
+other Git niceties.
+
+## FAQ
+
+> I installed the plugin and started Vim. Why don't any of the commands
+> exist?
+
+Fugitive cares about the current file, not the current working
+directory. Edit a file from the repository.
+
+> I opened a new tab. Why don't any of the commands exist?
+
+Fugitive cares about the current file, not the current working
+directory. Edit a file from the repository.
+
+> Why is `:Gbrowse` not using the right browser?
+
+`:Gbrowse` delegates to `git web--browse`, which is less than perfect
+when it comes to finding the right browser. You can tell it the correct
+browser to use with `git config --global web.browser ...`. On OS X, for
+example, you might want to set this to `open`. See `git web--browse --help`
+for details.
+
+> Here's a patch that automatically opens the quickfix window after
+> `:Ggrep`.
+
+This is a great example of why I recommend asking before patching.
+There are valid arguments to be made both for and against automatically
+opening the quickfix window. Whenever I have to make an arbitrary
+decision like this, I ask what Vim would do. And Vim does not open a
+quickfix window after `:grep`.
+
+Luckily, it's easy to implement the desired behavior without changing
+fugitive.vim. The following autocommand will cause the quickfix window
+to open after any grep invocation:
+
+ autocmd QuickFixCmdPost *grep* cwindow
