GITME: did you did your 'git commit' today ?

gitme recursively parses your home directory and analyse the result of git status on each directory containing .git. It warns you when a directory needs a git commit and give a list of the untracked files. Proposes you to add them in .gitignore.

A small graphical interface is written in Qt.

Installation and compilation

• Download

    git clone https://github.com/LaurentClaessens/gitme
  

• Compile

    make gitme
  

• run

    ./gitme
  

What it does

A list of directories that are not clean git repository (untracked or modified files) is displayed. Clicking on one of them opens a dialog window that helps you to

• add files in .gitignore
• track files
• make a 'git commit -a'
• see git diff
• ...

Very basic graphical interface

Here is an example of the main window listing the forgotten directories awaiting for some love :

Here is the window helping with git in the repository gitme. You see that README.md is modified and that there are new files that I can add to .gitignore or track.

We can also

• automatically add to .gitignore files corresponding to Vim, LaTeX, C++ or Python.
• see the git diff
• open a terminal
• edit .gitignore
