Extra features
ShortGit is not only for just shortcuts of current git; but it also provides some additional features.
Branch description
We often create branch, named same as the jira (or any other project management tool) ticket number. And whenever we work with multiple branches of such kind; we forget which branch denotes what.
To solve that ShortGit provides a --desc flag to set and view descriptions of a branch (they are local descriptions and never pushed to actual repo).
gb --desc "This is a description for current branch"The above command helps to set a description against current branch. And the command below helps to list the branches with corresponding descriptions.
gb --desc
//output
my-branch -> This is my branch which I created.
fun-branch -> This is all about fun
* master -> This is our very own masterRaise pull request (merge request)
Often, while raising pull requests, we run complicated commands or we do that from the browser, after navigating through multiple pages. To simplify that ShortGit provides gpr.
gpr
gpr branchNameRunning this command will take you to the pull request page in your browser. You can also provide the branch name, if we want to raise current branch's pull request to non-master branch.
