Git Line

Installation

Install Git Line scripts:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jvenezia/git-line/master/installer.bash | bash /dev/stdin install

By default, scripts are installed in $HOME/.local/bin. Make sure this directory is in your $PATH.

When using the commands for the first time, an interactive prompt will show to configure the current git repository.

To configure your current git repository manually:

git config git-line.development-branch 'develop'
git config git-line.protected-branches 'master develop'

git config git-line.branch-prefix-enabled 'true'
git config git-line.branch-prefix 'feature'

You can optionally add aliases in file .aliases.

To uninstall:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jvenezia/git-line/master/installer.bash | bash /dev/stdin uninstall
