Installation

pip install git-project
pip install git-project-core-plugins

Description

git-project is a git extension to manage development of a project hosted in a git repository. By itself git-project does almost nothing. Its functionality is enhanced by plugins.

git-project-core-plugins provides a set of basic functionality and should almost always be installed alongside git-project.

Conventions

Symlinks identiy projects to the git-project command. For example, if git-fizzbin is symlinked to git-project, then git fizzbin <command> will invoke git-project with fizzbin as the “active project.” To emphasize this, we show git-project commands with a generic <project> identifier:

git <project> --help

Discussion

With git-project and its core plugins you can:

  • Initialize a development environment at clone time (or after clone time)

  • Manage branches

  • Manage worktrees

  • Set and invoke commands

git-project is intended to make switching between active ‘tasks’ in a repository simple and fast, without losing the progress context of existing tasks. For example the core plugins set up build environments such that switching among projects and worktrees does not result in “rebuilding the world.” Builds can be configured to invoke complex commands via a convenient name (e.g. git <project> build debug)

Substitution variables

Commands that allow substitution take a form {varname} in their configured textual representation and substitute it with the value of varname. varname can be any configured value under <project>, for example:

[project]
    myvar = value

git-project has several built-in substitution variables that various commands and plugins can use:

branch

The name of the currently checked-out branch

gitdir

The value of GITDIR

git_common_dir

The value of GIT_COMMON_DIR

project

The value of <project>
