git-sync

git-sync allows you to easily synchronize a local git repository to a remote location.

Dependencies

git-sync requires jq (read the installation instructions there).

Setup

1. Clone this repo: git clone git@github.com:kflorence/git-sync.git.
2. Put git-sync in your PATH (or: sudo ln -s /path/to/git-sync /usr/bin/git-sync)
3. Create a file in the root of your repo called "sftp-config.json" (this is the same file used by Sublime SFTP) and put this in it:

{
   "host": "remote-hostname",
   "user": "your-username",
   "remote_path": "/path/to/remote/repo"
}

Usage

Just run git-sync inside of a git repository that contains an "sftp-config.json" file. See git-sync -h for more options.

Filter out files listed in .gitignore

Add the following to your JSON configuration file:

{
   "filter": ":- .gitignore"
}

Set up a git alias

Add the following to your .gitconfig file:

[alias]
    sync = !git-sync

Now you can sync by running git sync
