Build Status

About

Gitil (a contraction of Git and utils) is a set of tools that I have developed to simplify some common tasks I often have todo in Git such as merging a branch into master our creating a tag and pushing the tag. Originialy some of these tools where python scripts, but I have decided to bundle them into a singular CLI program. Everyone is free to use and extend my program, however there aren't are a lot of error handeling checks build in, therefore I don't recommend using this for mission critcial enterprise projects as it can really mess up your git repo's.

Why Go?

Like I said I wanted to bundle my python scripts in a cross platform CLI tool. C and C++ where to difficult and too verbose for me. I was learning Go as a side project and decided that this would be an excellent test case for trying to improve my Go skills.
