gl

Description

A simple command line utility to wrap some common Git functions into a simple binary.

Quick Start

$ ./compile.sh
$ ./gl -h

Configure for yourself

This tool is very much made for myself. It started as a Bash alias when I first started programming, in August, 2019, and then turned into a Bash script, and then a small Rust project, and now this. While I never intended this tool to be used by others, I figured I should allow some customisability if anybody else wants to use it.

Anything you need to change to get it working for you should be in the config file.

Where to store

Once it is ready for a "release", I like to store this in /opt/local/bin:

$ ./compile.sh
$ chmod 755 ./gl
$ mv ./gl /opt/local/bin
