h and l are incorrectly bound if evil-magit is loaded lazily about evil-magit HOT 4 OPEN

Can you take out the general stuff in your example? I keep getting errors (about general, nvmap, etc) trying to use your example.

from evil-magit.

Updated, general is just a key binding package, you can still check by manually calling magit-status.

Hm, I can't reproduce this. I just tried this from emacs -Q and everything seems fine with h and l

(package-initialize)

(use-package magit
  :config
  (setq magit-popup-show-common-commands nil))

(use-package evil-magit
  :after magit
  :init
  (setq evil-magit-want-horizontal-movement nil))

(evil-mode)

:after doesn't actually defer loading, at least in the use-package sense, it imposes an ordering. In fact if you have use-package-always-defer set, the behavior may be that evil-magit doesn't load at all at least with the config the OP has. The use-package site has this warning:

Note: Pay attention if you set use-package-always-defer to t, and also use the :after keyword, as you will need to specify how the declared package is to be loaded: e.g., by some :bind. If you're not using one of tho mechanisms that registers autoloads, such as :bind or :hook, and your package manager does not provide autoloads, it's possible that without adding :demand t to those declarations, your package will never be loaded.
