They&#39;ve raised $17M to build what comes after Git, but you can help me keep Git magical right now, with a much smaller contribution. 💸 Thanks for your support! ❤️ https://github.com/magit/magit/issues/5555

@tarsius@fosstodon.org @ctietze@mastodon.social done! I recently returned to emacs after a decade away and a friend told me about Magit. I’ve used practically every git frontend in existence (I think on large projects it’s borderline irresponsible not to), and within an hour I was surprised to discover that Magit has them all beat. And I can even use it on a remote project I’m editing via a TRAMP buffer?!?! 🤯 Anyways thanks for the amazing work. Just set up a recurring donation.

@tarsius@fosstodon.org for folks like me who hate recurring donations can you turn the option to donate once? (if that button exists in liberapay)?

@tarsius@fosstodon.org The top comment on HN is pretty great. "what comes after git" is right up there on my priority list with "try a new shower gel"

@tarsius@fosstodon.org for some reason my bank is asking for an address. Is there one you can share, or shall I find another solution?
