Git Script Manager

This utility will allow you to manage your git scripts in a less-than-horrible fashion.

Commands

There are a few commands for dealing with the repos and symlinks.

get

Fetches, updates, and/or checks-out a branch of a provided github repository.

e.g. git scripts get tzrlk/git-extras master

Note	If the last argument is omitted, it will default to master

on

Selects a particular script and symlinks it into the ~/.git/script-bin directory for use.

e.g. git scripts on tzrlk/git-extras bin/git-ignore git-ignore

off

Removes a particular script from use.

e.g. git scripts off git-ignore

purge

Removes a script repo and all associated activated scripts.

e.g. git scripts purge tzrlk/git-extras

list

Lists all the script repos, their scripts, and whether they are activated or not.

e.g. git scripts list

Installation

Scripts are provided for installation, but for any environment, the first step is to clone this repository to some directory on your computer.

Windows

Execute install.cmd and it will use powershell to create the correct PATH entries for you.

Note	This doesn’t actually work at the moment, so you’ll need to start a powershell session under administrator mode, and set the ExecutionPolicy to Bypass; finally, run the script file. The install.cmd file just attempts to do this all for you.

Linux

I haven’t written the install scripts for linux yet.

Manual

Just add the bin directory and ~/.git/script-bin to your PATH. That’s it.
