acp - Automatic Commit Pusher

Turn your staged changes into a GitHub pull request with a single command.
No more branch naming, no browser tabs, no clicking through forms.

git add .
acp pr "fix: typo in readme"
PR created: https://github.com/vbvictor/acp/pull/12

That's it. PR created, you're back on your original branch.

What it does

When you run acp pr <commit message>, acp will:

Validate you have staged changes
Create a temporary branch acp/{your-github-username}/{random-16-digits}
Commit your staged changes with your message
Push the branch to origin repo
Create a pull request to upstream if present of origin otherwise.
Switch you back to your original branch
Print the PR URL

The tool can also merge freshly created PR via --merge or --auto-merge options, see --help for more information.

Getting Started

Prerequisites: Python 3.10+, Git, and GitHub CLI (gh)

Authenticate GitHub CLI (if you haven't already):

gh auth login

Install from PyPI via pip or pipx:

pip install acp-gh

Or install the latest release directly from GitHub via pip or pipx:

pip install https://github.com/vbvictor/acp/releases/latest/download/acp_gh-1.8.0-py3-none-any.whl

Usage

Create basic PR:

git add .
acp pr "fix: correct calculation bug"

Create PR body message and run acp with verbose output:

acp pr "fix: resolve issue" -b "Closes #123" -v

Skip automatic PR creation and have a GitHub link to crate PR manually:

acp pr "feat: new feature" --interactive

Merge PR immediately after creation or use GitHub auto-merge feature:

# Squash and merge immediately (default merge method)
acp pr "fix: urgent hotfix" --merge

# Use different merge methods: merge, squash, or rebase
acp pr "fix: hotfix" --merge --merge-method merge
acp pr "feat: feature" --auto-merge --merge-method rebase

When merging branch immediately, temporary local branch and
remote tracking branch will also be deleted to keep workspace clean.

Contributions welcome! Please open an issue if you have an idea or submit a pull request.
