To be honest, I’d really prefer not to have to jump to a browser while I’m working. It’s so distraction-prone.
I’m able to edit commit messages right alongside the code that I’ve edited and the output of shell processes, so I have the most context there. Editing in the browser means either setting up split windows or constant Cmd+Tabbing between my terminal and Chrome.
One other issue I have with the web UI is that it doesn’t help with keeping max column widths for lines. I try to wrap lines at 72 characters, and that’s impossible in the web dashboard. I find myself copy/pasting the PR description into Vim, formatting it there, and then copy/pasting it back into the dashboard.
