cmd

The command of cmd support some short sub-command to replace the long git original command.

Use pigit cmd -s to check what short command it supported, it will display the corresponding help information and the git original command, like this:

These are short commands that can replace git operations:
    b        lists, creates, renames, and deletes branches.
             git branch
    bc       creates a new branch.
             git checkout -b
    bl       lists branches and their commits.
             git branch -vv
    bL       lists local and remote branches and their commits.
             git branch --all -vv
    bs       lists branches and their commits with ancestry graphs.
             git show-branch
    bS       lists local and remote branches and their commits with ancestry graphs.
             git show-branch --all
    bm       renames a branch.
             git branch --move
    bM       renames a branch even if the new branch name already exists.
             git branch --move --force
    bd       delete a local branch by name.
             git branch -d
......

repo

The command of repo support operate multiple repos at the same time.

Use pigit repo -h to get more help.

usage: pigit

 repo [-h] {add,rm,rename,ll,clear,cd,fetch,pull,push} ...


positional arguments:
  {add,rm,rename,ll,clear,cd,fetch,pull,push}
    add                 add repo(s).

Interaction

Even if you can use short commands instead of long commands of git, there are still some cases where simple commands can be very bad. For example: git add a/b/1.txt b/c/1.txt c/d/1.txt.

Therefore, we need a TUI to help us, so Pigit provides a simple command-line interactive TUI. When you use pigit without following any parameters, you will enter it.

And in the interaction mode, you can use ? or h to see the help message.

Installation

Pip

pip install -U pigit

Source

git clone https://github.com/zlj-zz/pigit.git --depth=1
cd pigit
make install
# or
python setup.py install  # On windows

Completion

Provides a friendly command-line completion capability, injecting completion through the following methods.

Write it to your shell configuration file：

# ~/.zshrc

eval "$(pigit --complete zsh)"

Currently supports bash, zsh and fish.

If no shell is specified, it will try to automatically detect what shell you are using.

eval "$(pigit --complete)"

Alias

Alias is good way to help you use pigit faster . Open your shell profile and append:

if type pigit >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    alias pg="pigit"
    alias gr="pigit repo"
fi

Then, you can use pg to call pigit.

Windows

Check your PowerShell config, like this: echo $profile. Create it if the path not exist. Then open it, and input:

set-alias pg pigit

After completing the above preparations, restart your terminal. If it prompts that you cannot run the configuration, you can refer to the official website address.

Configuration

You can use pigit --create-config to create a template configuration at pigit home path.

On Linux or MacOS: ~/.config/pigit

On windows should be: C:\\User\\<your username>

here is a configuration template.

config key	type	default	desc
cmd_display	bool	True	Show original git command.
cmd_recommend	bool	True	Is it recommended to correct when entering wrong commands.
tui_help_showtime	float	1.5	Display time of help information in interactive mode.
counter_use_gitignore	bool	True	Whether to use the ignore configuration of the .gitignore file.
counter_show_invalid	bool	False	Whether show files that cannot be counted.
counter_show_icon	bool	True	Whether show files icons. Font support required, like: 'Nerd Font'.
counter_format	str	table	Output format of statistical results. Supported: [table, simple]
git_config_format	str	table	Git local config print format. Supported: [table, normal]
repo_info_include	list	["remote", "branch", "log"]	Control which parts need to be displayed when viewing git repository information. Support: (path,remote,branch,log,summary)
repo_auto_append	bool	False	Whether auto append path to repos.
log_debug	bool	False	Whether run PIGIT in debug mode.
log_output	bool	False	Whether output log in terminal.

Extra cmds

You can setting your custom cmds. It need create a extra_cmds.py file at the pigit home. And writing like this:

import os

def print_user(args):
    print(os.system('whoami'))

extra_cmds = {
    'echo': {
        'command': 'echo 123',
    },
    'print-user': {
        'command': print_user,
        'type': 'func',
        'help': 'print system user name.'
    }
}

The extra_cmds dict is must. And the structure is command key and command info.

The command info has some options:

• command: (Must have) Short life corresponds to the complete command or a method. If it is a method, it must receive a parameter tuple.
• type: (Option) Mark the type of command, support ['func', 'command'], and the default is 'command'.

• has_arguments: (Option, bool) Whether the command accepts parameters. Default is True.

Feature

• Short command for quick use Git, and custom your short command.
• Provides command correction, when the command is wrong.
• Have a simple tui interaction, complete very troublesome operations.
• Code statistics and can be beautifully displayed.
• Support generate and use shell completion script.
• Support create .gitignore template from internet.
