In vim airline, only show git branch, not changes to file


I'm using vim with airline. I like that airline shows me the git branch, but I don't want it to show me the lines added/removed/changed. What should I add to my ~/.vimrc file to change that? I know I need to set g:airline_section_b but I'm not quite sure what to set it to.

I tried this, but the syntax is clearly wrong, because it didn't work.

let g:airline_section_b = airline#section#create(['branch'])

Solution

  • From :help airline:

    -------------------------------------                        *airline-hunks*
    vim-gitgutter <https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter>                   
    vim-signify <https://github.com/mhinz/vim-signify>                          
    changesPlugin <https://github.com/chrisbra/changesPlugin>                   
    
    * enable/disable showing a summary of changed hunks under source control.
    let g:airline#extensions#hunks#enabled = 1
    

    So add

    let g:airline#extensions#hunks#enabled=0
    

    to your ~/.vimrc and restart vim.
