I'm sorry. I wasn't even aware that LSP existed until just this
moment.

Since it's on GitHub, perhaps it will attract more developers. It
looks like it's actively being developed and has a good number of
contributors.

I've heard that. In fact, there are some folks who say there's
nothing you can't do with Emacs, so you could spend all your time in
it and lack for nothing.

I wouldn't know, because I run screaming from Emacs, Vi, and Vim
because their interfaces and the way to interact with them is so
alien to me, so I haven't become familiar with any of them.

Geany has a git-changebar plug-in that might be of interest:

https://plugins.geany.org/git-changebar.html

I haven't tried it, because I do all of my git work either on the
command-line or on GitHub, depending on my mood or the task at hand.
