tinygit v0.0.8

tinygit - tinygit is the fastest way to make PR via CLI.

tinygit is a CLI tool for making pull request from your command line instead of visiting gitlab or github web interface.

Installing

npm install tinygit -g

Requirements

• Git installed.

• Node and NPM installed.

How to configure

Once tinygit is successfully installed globally. Github and Gitlab require tokens to make a successful pull request.

Github: You can generate a github token from this link: https://github.com/settings/tokens

Gitlab: You can generate a gitlab token from this link: https://gitlab.com/-/profile/personal_access_tokens

MacOs setup

You can run the command from any terminal on your mac to set up the service.

github:

tinygit config -github <token>

example:

tinygit config -github tokenhere

gitlab:

tinygit config -gitlab <token>

example:

tinygit config -gitlab tokenhere

ps:

a. All tokens are stored on your Mac's system keychain.

b. You can delete/update a token with the commands above.

Windows setup

Unlike MacOs, you'd have to cd to the project repo to add a token. It has to be done every time you have a new repo. I wish there is a keychain(?) alternative for windows. If you know of a way to handle this for windows, please reach out - abiodun0x@gmail.com

How to make PR

step 1:

cd to the directory where your repo resides.

step 2:

tinygit pr -b "branchname" -t "title of the PR"

a longer command:

tinygit pr -branch "branchname" -title "title of the PR"

branch - The branch you want to merge to. e.g: main, master etc

title - The title of the PR.

It will generate a PR link for you if everything is OK.
