Table of Contents

git-extra-commands is a ZSH plugin that packages some extra git helper scripts I've found. This collection (and the scripts that I wrote in it) is licensed with the Apache Version 2 license.

This collection doesn't actually require ZSH, but packaging it as a ZSH plugin makes it more convenient for people using a ZSH framework to use this collection.

However, some of the scripts in this collection came from other sources and may have different licensing - if they do, their license information is included inline in the script source.

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

Useful git aliases

Here are some helpful aliases for your ~/.gitconfig

alias Description
ahead-of-master = log --oneline origin/master..HEAD Show commits that haven't made it to master yet.
fetch-pull-requests = fetch origin '+refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pull/*' Fetch pull requests from GitHub so you can git checkout pull/123 and test them locally.
roots = log --all --oneline --decorate --max-parents=0 Show the root commits.
unpushed = log @{u}.. Show which commits have not been pushed to the tracking branch and are safe to amend/rebase.
work-in-progress = rebase -i @{u} Starts an interactive rebase of all the commits you haven't pushed yet. Handy for collapsing a bunch of work-in-progress snapshots into logical commits before pushing, without having to worry about accidentally squashing a commit someone else has already referred to.

Installing

Pre-requisites

  • A relatively recent version of git. The version of git Apple includes in macOS is very stale. You should really brew install git to get the current version if you're on macOS - if not for features, for security updates.
  • Python 3+
  • Ruby 2.2+

Zgenom

If you're using Zgenom:

  1. Add zgenom load unixorn/git-extra-commands to your .zshrc along with your other zgenom load commands.
  2. zgenom reset && zgenom save

Antigen

If you're using Antigen:

  1. Add antigen bundle unixorn/git-extra-commands@main to your .zshrc where you've listed your other plugins.
  2. 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:

  1. Clone the repository into a new git-extra-commands directory in oh-my-zsh's plugin folder:

git clone https://github.com/unixorn/git-extra-commands.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/git-extra-commands

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

plugins=( ... git-extra-commands )

  1. Then, restart your terminal application to refresh context and use the plugin. Alternatively, you can source your current shell configuration:

source ~/.zshrc

Bash / Manual Installation

Nothing here actually requires you to use ZSH or zgen, that's just a convenient distribution method for anyone using a ZSH framework.

If you aren't using any ZSH frameworks, or if you're using bash, fish or another shell, do the following steps:

  1. git clone this repository
  2. Add cloneDirectory/bin to your $PATH in your shell's startup file.

External Git Utilities

  • bfg repo-cleaner - Removes large or troublesome blobs like git filter-branch does, but faster.
  • bitbucket-git-helpers - Helper scripts to allow you to create bitbucket PRs from a shell session.
  • blackbox - Tom Limoncelli open sourced the tool they use at Stack Exchange to use GPG to store secrets in a git repository.
  • branch-manager - ZSH plugin for branch management
  • commit-helper - A python script that helps you write commits following commit conventions.
  • diff-so-fancy - Better looking git diffs.
  • dunk - Another tool for prettier git diffs.
  • gig - a CLI .gitignore generator
  • git ZSH plugin - A replacement for the stock oh-my-zsh git plugin. Provides quite a few useful aliases and functions that are more consistent in their naming that the relatively unintuitive ones in the stock plugin.
  • git-absorb - Essentially, when your working directory has uncommitted changes on top of draft changesets, you can run git absorb and the uncommitted modifications are automagically folded ("absorbed") into the appropriate draft ancestor commits. The command essentially looks at the lines that were modified, finds a commit modifying those lines, and amends that commit to include your uncommitted changes. If the changes can't be made without conflicts, they remain uncommitted. This workflow is insanely useful for things like applying review feedback.
  • git-activity - Displays an activity graph (like the contribution graph on GitHub) for the current git repository and branch.
  • git-aliases.zsh - Peter Hurford's git plugin which you may prefer to the git plugin from oh-my-zsh.
  • git-also - Shows what files are most often committed with a given file in the repository.
  • git-amend - Bash script to amend older commits with staged changes.
  • git-branch-status - A git utility to make managing large number of branches either across many remotes easier. Branch status allows comparing all branches against their upstream or any arbitrary branch to show the number of commit differences.
  • gitql - Gitql is a git query language.
  • git-branches - Prints the commit behind/ahead counts for branches.
  • git-bump - Hook scripts to automatically bump the version file in a repository
  • git-chart - A python script that builds charts from a git repository
  • git-clean-branch - Cleans up dead git branches.
  • git-cliff - git-cliff can generate changelog files from the Git history by utilizing conventional commits as well as regex-powered custom parsers. The changelog template can be customized with a configuration file to match the desired format.
  • git-complete-urls - ZSH plugin to enhance git tab completion to include in the remotes completion (e.g. from git clone) any URL in the clipboard.

Miscellaneous Tips

Make it easier to check out default branch

Many repositories are switching away from using master as the default branch name. You can do git config --global alias.co-default '!'"git checkout \$(git branch -r | awk -F/ '/HEAD/ {print \$NF}')" to add a co-default alias that will determine what the repository's default branch is for you.

Alternatively, add the following aliases from a tweet by @jnesselr to your .gitconfig file:

cdef = "!git checkout $(git originhead)"
originhead = "!git remote show origin | grep 'HEAD branch' | cut -d ' ' -f5"

This queries the remote to get the current up to date default branch, so it will work even if the remote's default branch changes after you did your initial checkout.

Have git cope with typos

Do git config --global help.autocorrect 1

git will now try to figure out what you meant, for example:

$ git commt
WARNING: You called a Git command named 'commt', which does not exist.
Continuing in 0.1 seconds, assuming that you meant 'commit'.

Rewrite git:// with https://

git config --global url."https://github".insteadOf git://github

or replace with ssh

Use ssh instead of https://

git config --global url."[email protected]:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"

Contributing

  • Please include an entry both in the credits section of README.md for any scripts and a credit comment in the script itself in your PRs so authors get their work credited correctly.
  • Please use #!/usr/bin/env interpreter instead of a direct path to the interpreter, this makes it easier for people to use more recent versions when the ones packaged with their OS (macOS and CentOS, I'm looking at you!) are stale.

Thanks

Many thanks to all the contributors over the years.
