GitGo

Overview

GitGo is a bash script to initialise a new Git project. It performs the following steps:

1. Runs git init.
2. Adds all files to the repo.
3. Creates an "initial commit".
4. Creates a tag if -t argument is passed.
5. Runs git flow init if -f option is passed.
6. Checks if remote origin argument (-r) was passed. If so then:
7. Sets the remote origin.
8. Pushes the master branch, and sets it to track origin/master.
9. Pushes the develop branch, and sets it to track origin/develop.
10. Pushes the tag if created.

Usage

gitgo.sh [-f] [-t=INITIAL_TAG] [-r=REMOTE_REPO]

Options

-f : Indicates the intent to use git-flow

-t : Indicates the intent to tag your repo state. Pass the tag value to this argument.

-r : Pass your remote repository path to this argument.

Example usage

gitgo.sh -f -t 0.1 -r git@github.com:erikreagan/gitgo.git

Notes

• GitGo currently assumes that you do not deviate from the git-flow default branch names of master and develop
• You can alternatively move the script into your $PATH for easier access
