I recently \nswitched my text editor from Atom to Vim, and the only thing I am \nmissing is Atom's gui for looking at diffs and resolving merge \nconflicts. I've only used git-gui for a couple days, but it looks like \njust the tool I need.\n\nI can maintain it (as long as I'm using the tool at least). I'm not \nparticularly fluent with Tcl or Tk, but I'm learning them as I implement \nthe features I need.\n\nWill I get commit access to the main git repo, or should I use a fork \nand send the changes over here, and one of you folks will merge them?\n\n> \n> \n> \n>> Also, is the project even actively maintained any more?
