gitcd 1.6.1

Tool for continuous delivery using git

Description

gitcd is a little helper for continuous integration workflows using git as scm.

Installation

Since gitcd is using python3 by default, you better upgrade.

After successful installation of python3 and pip for pyhton3, run the following command to install and upgrade gitcd:

pip3 install gitcd --upgrade

Argument Completion

Gitcd supports argument completion, to activate this feature in linux run:

sudo activate-global-python-argcomplete3

Under OSX it isn’t that simple unfortunately. Global completion requires bash support for complete -D, which was introduced in bash 4.2. On OS X or older Linux systems, you will need to update bash to use this feature. Check the version of the running copy of bash with echo $BASH_VERSION. On OS X, install bash via Homebrew (brew install bash), add /usr/local/bin/bash to /etc/shells, and run chsh to change your shell. Afterwards you might be able to also just run:

sudo activate-global-python-argcomplete3

Usage
