git-extra-commands

A zsh plugin that packages some extra git helper scripts I've found. I only wrote a few of these scripts, and the ones I didn't each have whatever licensing is included in the file. This collection doesn't actually require zsh, but packaging as a ZSH plugin makes it more convenient for anyone using a ZSH framework to use this collection.

If you wrote one of these scripts and want it removed from this repository, please either make a PR or file an issue against the repo and I will remove it.

Installing

Pre-requisites

Some of these scripts use dash. brew install dash if you're on OS X.

Antigen

If you're using Antigen:

Add antigen bundle unixorn/git-extra-commands to your .zshrc where you've listed your other plugins.
Close and reopen your Terminal/iTerm window to refresh context and use the plugin. Alternatively, you can run antigen bundle unixorn/git-extra-commands in a running shell to have antigen load the new plugin.

oh-my-zsh

If you're using oh-my-zsh:

In the command line, change to oh-my-zsh's custom plugin directory :

cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/
Clone the repository into a new git-extra-commands directory:

git clone https://github.com/unixorn/git-extra-commands.git git-extra-commands
Edit your ~/.zshrc and add git-extra-commands – same as clone directory– to the list of plugins to enable:

plugins=( ... git-extra-commands )
Then, restart your terminal application to refresh context and use the plugin. Alternatively, you can source your current shell configuration:

source ~/.zshrc

zgen

If you're using zgen:

Add zgen load unixorn/git-extra-commands to your .zshrc along with your other zgen load commands.
rm ${ZGEN_INIT}/init.zsh && zgen save

Without using any frameworks, or if you're a bash user

git clone this repository, then add it to your $PATH. Nothing here actually requires you to use ZSH or zgen, that's just a convenient distribution method for anyone using a ZSH framework.

Peter Hurford's git-it-on.zsh plugin. It adds a gitit command that will open your current directory on github, in your current branch.
Peter also wrote git-aliases.zsh, which you may prefer to the git plugin from oh-my-zsh.
Zach Dennis has a great blog post - it's worth reading on it's own, but here are a couple of good sites I found through it:
- gitready.com/ is another great reference which has been collecting information and tips for git since 2009.
- gitimmersion.com/
gitsh - An interactive shell for git. From within gitsh you can issue any git command, even using your local aliases and configuration.
