Neo Zed treats Git as a first-class surface instead of a sidebar afterthought. Stage and unstage individual hunks directly from the gutter, review the working tree in a dedicated panel, and resolve conflicts without leaving the buffer.
Branch switching lives in the command palette. Commit signing is honored if your Git configuration enables it. Remote operations (push, pull, fetch) run through your local Git install, so SSH agents, credential helpers, and pre-commit hooks all work the way they do on the command line.
Blame annotations show inline on the current line and expand to the full commit on click. The diff gutter reflects the current HEAD and updates live as you type.
