  19 * Since it uses the corresponding VC diff command, it's only accurate when the
  20   buffer is in saved state. Highlighting changes "on the fly" might be better,
  21   maybe we can do something similar to `highlight-markup-buffers` with a hidden
  22   buffer containing the unmodified copy.

  24 * [git-gutter](https://github.com/syohex/emacs-git-gutter) provides the commands
  25   to show/hide/toggle margin indicators for the same information, and allows you
  26   to customize how the indicators look.
