Trying to use Sublime, LOVE editor, struggling with Projects & git

#1

I’m feeling that I need to read something - From the web, Sublime is VERY well thought of, but my experience is BAD
Not the editor, it is awesome
But projects and the support/integration with git really appears to SUCK - I say “appears” because I suspect my problems are due to ignorance.
If anyone can point me to things to read, I’d be very grateful

I’m running Debian 10, in a crostini container

You need Sublime Merge for better git integration. As for project management, there is this plugin. Always remember that Sublime Text is a text editor. Not an IDE replacement. While you can close some gaps by using plugins, it will never be the real Visual Studio or Jetbrains.

Thanks! I understand.
You say Project is a plugin - it appears to be part of the product??? That is, it doesn’t show as an installed plugin? How can I remove it?

I think you are confusing the project menu with the plugin called project manager. You can remove project manager, the plugin, by using package control.

I’m happily using ST4 and Sublime Merge, but before Sublime Merge existed, I was happily using https://jisaacks.github.io/GitGutter/

I can’t say I use projects for much more than allowing a set of possibly-spread-all-over-the-disk folders to be linked and searched in one place.

I don’t use the build system at all, just various manual cli commands from one or more Terminus tabs https://packagecontrol.io/packages/Terminus
