mgalgs / zsh-take

Adds a `take` command to your zsh for a single-step mkdir/clone + cd

zsh plugin that adds a take command to your zsh to make creating directories (or download/cloning remote assets) and changing into them a single step.

It may seem small, but micro-optimizations to your workflow add up! And after you've gotten used to take, using the mkdir; cd pattern will feel archaic and inefficient.

Examples

Create directory and change into it

take my-cool-new-dir

Is equivalent to:

mkdir my-cool-new-dir
cd my-cool-new-dir

Clone repo and cd into it

take https://github.com/mgalgs/zsh-take.git

Is equivalent to:

git clone https://github.com/mgalgs/zsh-take.git
cd zsh-take

Installation

Add this repo with your plugin manager (which should find the zsh-take.plugin.zsh file and source it automatically), or just download the source and source it yourself.
