## Features
Extra useful functionality which is not essential enough for other 'mini.nvim' modules to include directly.
Features:
- Various pickers for ['mini.pick'](https://github.com/echasnovski/mini.nvim/blob/main/readmes/mini-pick.md):
- Built-in diagnostic (`*MiniExtra.pickers.diagnostic()*`).
- File explorer (`*MiniExtra.pickers.explorer()*`).
- Git branches/commits/files/hunks (`*MiniExtra.pickers.git_hunks()*`, etc.).
- Command/search/input history (`*MiniExtra.pickers.history()*`).
- LSP references/symbols/etc. (`*MiniExtra.pickers.lsp()*`).
- Tree-sitter nodes (`*MiniExtra.pickers.treesitter()*`).
- **And much more**.
See `*MiniExtra.pickers*` help tag for more.
- Various textobject specifications for ['mini.ai'](https://github.com/echasnovski/mini.nvim/blob/main/readmes/mini-ai.md). See `*MiniExtra.gen_ai_spec*` help tag for more.
- Various highlighters for ['mini.hipatterns'](https://github.com/echasnovski/mini.nvim/blob/main/readmes/mini-hipatterns.md). See `*MiniExtra.gen_highlighter*` help tag for more.
Notes:
- This module requires only those 'mini.nvim' modules which are needed for a particular functionality: 'mini.pick' for pickers, etc.

## Installation
This plugin can be installed as part of 'mini.nvim' library (**recommended**) or as a standalone Git repository.
There are two branches to install from:
- `main` (default, **recommended**) will have latest development version of plugin. All changes since last stable release should be perceived as being in beta testing phase (meaning they already passed alpha-testing and are moderately settled).
- `stable` will be updated only upon releases with code tested during public beta-testing phase in `main` branch.
Here are code snippets for some common installation methods (use only one):
| Github repo | Branch | Code snippet |
