Save to Git

A plugin for Glyphs.app that saves your font and commits the changes to a git repository. Well suited if you just want to keep track of your changes.

If you collaborate with others on a font through Git, you will definitely need another tool, as the need to compare and merge different revisions will probably arise. Save to Git doesn't handle this. Maybe try MergeGlyphs and CommitGlyphs.

Usage

Instead of using the normal Save command, use File > Save to Git. This will save your file and commit the changes to the git repository the current file is part of.

Known Issues

• The git command line utility must be installed on your system (see below for instructions).
• The git repository must already be set up, and the Glyphs file must have been saved and committed.
• Set your own shortcut via system preferences.

Git Installation

If you don't have the git command line utility installed, you can do so by opening the Terminal app and entering this command:

xcode-select --install
