As someone who went straight from command line Git to Magit, I'm just now learning the built in vc-* commands are pretty good, vc-region-history in particular which shows the commit history of a selected region is pretty killer.
The internal documentation of #Emacs is just impressive.
In all my life, I have never seen a single other piece of software documented with such detail and quality.
Happy to announce that the Org protocol page on Worg has been updated for 2025. Its last significant update was 3 years ago and much of the content on it was stale. Most of it has been refreshed, although not all due to resource availability (anybody here using recent Windows and Org protocol? Contact me.) Learn all about it at the link below.

Thanks to Max Nikulin and Christian Moe for their feedback!
Today colleagues and I present not one but two #Guix tutorials at Compas, the French #HPC conference!
① #Guix + #Emacs#Org for #ReproducbibleResearch
https://guix-org-tutorial-compas-2025.gitlab.io/tutorial/
② Deploying #HPC code on supercomputers with #Guix

I was just wondering if you had anything you would like to see an early-emacs-days #writer do with #emacs in our community particularly (noting your https://sachachua.com/topic/#topic-index-emacs-and-writing ).
Sorry, gef, for volunteering you for lab experiments ;p
Honestly my goal is to see whether #eev anchors work for his flow, and whether it's-possible to use my own 'easy' graph stuff.
I knew I wasn't taking advantage of the power of multi-path undo possibilities in Emacs but it never clicked with me, until I found vundo thanks to @sacha's recent post.
This package visualizes the undo history as nodes that you can traverse and diff in a very familiar git branch paradigm. Quick post: https://shom.dev/posts/20250622_undo-finally-clicked-with-vundo/
This is my third time in last 15 years I face issues with RSI. Do you have any tips on how to make the situation better and have less pain?
For the context: I'm on dvorak layout and have jis keyboard with heavy use of thumbs. 8 years ago I switched from evil to vanilla Emacs keybindings.
I also have a wanderer constraint at the moment: I have only one backpack for all my belongings.
