This project is now retired and unmaintained. I consider this code public domain, so please feel free to do whatever you like with it.
A small collection of useful Git extensions.
Opens the Github page for the current repository, if it is a Github project.
Lists files that have been added between two branches. If branch 2 is omitted, branch 1 will be compared with master. If branch 1 and branch 2 are both omitted, the current branch will be compared with master.
Lists commits that exist in the current branch, but not in its remote counterpart.
Safely switches between branches of a Rails project by ensuring that migrations that were added in the current branch are rolled back and migrations added in the destination branch are executed.
I highly recommend adding aliases for these commands. For example:
$ git config --global alias.h hub
$ git config --global alias.la list-added
$ git config --global alias.llc list-local-commits
$ git config --global alias.srb switch-rails-branch
Then you can use git h, git la, git llc and git srb.
If you use Homebrew already, I recommend installing Git Goodies from my repository of formulae.
$ brew tap cliffrowley/homebrew-goodies
$ brew install git-goodies --HEAD
$ git clone git://github.com/cliffrowley/git-goodies.git
$ cd git-goodies
$ make install
- Convert Ruby scripts to Bash (?)
- Overhaul scripts in general for better integration
- Overhaul git-www and merge with git-hub
- Refine and refactor git-switch-rails-branch
No guarantee is provided as to the quality of these extensions, and any loss or damage caused as a result of their use is entirely your responsibility. However bear in mind that I use these daily, and so far haven't managed to break anything. Your mileage hopefully won't vary.
I borrowed the project structure (including Makefile and man page format) from git-extras, from which I drew inspiration to package up my own collection of git extensions.
