   I came to the conclusion that the user interface of the JetBrains IDE Git plugin is either the work of some misunderstood genius, or an elaborate prank.

   I lean towards the latter.

   Does anyone know of somebody who's actually doing *work* with this?

     @code_disaster yeah I use it all the time, it’s basically the only IDE git integration I like 🤷🏻♂️

     @code_disaster one thing that’s confusing at first is that by default they include submodules into your top level commit view and history. You have to use Directory Mappings (https://www.jetbrains.com/help/rider/Settings_Version_Control_Directory_Mappings.html) to tell it to separate them but once you do that it becomes super useful. Commits for all submodules separated, and you can have one history tab per submodule

     @sinbad So far I've never met an integrated solution I'd prefer over a standalone one.

     I'm using Git Fork primarily, with gitui and/or bare cli where Fork isn't available. I learned about Gitnuro and Gittyup yesterday which look pretty neat as a Fork alternatives on Linux.

     @code_disaster me neither, I even wrote one back in the day (SourceTree, which I believe somewhat inspired Fork, which I like very much) because I generally don’t like IDE versions. Rider’s is the first one I enjoy using
