Git-Work

Includes commands for working with git feature branches efficiently. Most of these commands are used every day.

If I find myself typing the same native Git commands repetitively, I usually create a new bash script to execute those commands to save myself a few keystrokes. It allows me to operate more efficiently.

Because I've compiled most commands on-the-fly, they'll need some cleanup before I add them to this repository.

I hope others will find them useful.

Prerequisites

The scripts in this repository are written in Bash, Ruby, and Python and execute native Git commands.

#DUH

Just a few notes of the duh variety that allow me to feel as if I'm doing my due diligence:

• Don't be a wiener; Test commands before running them in production environments.
• If you're unsure of what a command does, don't run it.
• If you break, delete, lose, can't find, or otherwise misplace something, I am not liable.
• I am, however, available if you have any questions.
• I will not, however, be able to fix, revert, find, or restore something you lose. #IJS
