It's a really useful time save.

Unfortunaly git-wip by default doesn't commit files that are untracked (e.g. new). I submitted a patch to do exactly this: http://github.com/MSch/git-wip/commit/22f4b57b67762a0123d1ba...

Why not have a daemon track for file state changes instead of having every editor run the git wip command? That would be much more general and probably better for most projects.

Maybe I'll make such a daemon...

This is timely considering just last night I "rm -rf projectname.py" instead of "rm -rf projectname.sqlite". D'oh.

Anyone have it working in Emacs? I may fool around with it tonight, if not, and see if I can get it working.

this should be integrated into editors as undo/redo

i've long thought proper version control makes sense if it's fast enough -- eventually everything will be tracked anyway.

it doesn't make any sense to lose any ideas just because only one of them was "the winner".

How does this compare with git stash?
