[FR/Q] Use git-gutter with vcsh

[NightMachinery]

I use vcsh to manage my dotfiles. I was wondering if it's possible to make git-gutter work with vcsh?

At a code level I guess you would add vcsh as a new VCS backend that calls the vcsh commands however they need to be called. At minimum you'll need a way to determine what vcsh bare repo corresponds to the dotfile you're editing, and be able to perform a diff against the corresponding vcsh bare repo. That seems doable, but I'm not familiar enough with vcsh to be sure.

This is probably not possible without explicit user configuration. The diff part is easy though: vcsh reponame diff …
