git bk

git bk is simple backup of current branch.

$ git branch
* develop
  master
$ git bk
[SUCCESS] successfully backup current branch to 'bk_develop'
$ git branch
  bk_develop
* develop
  master

git mkbr

git mkbr can create branch with following prefix.
no option or -f : "feature/"
-b : "bugfix/"
-r : "release/"
-h : "hotfix/"
-p : "project/"

$ git mkbr hoge
Switched to a new branch 'feature/hoge'
$ git mkbr -h fuga
Switched to a new branch 'hotfix/fuga'

git ex push

You don't need git push --set-upstream origin feature/hoge anymore.
Just need git ex push.
This command tries to git push at first, but if failed,
tries to git push -u origin <CURRENT BRANCH NAME> automatically.
Wonderful!
Of course, if there is at least 1 argument, it runs git push <ARGS> as normal git push.

git ex tag

This command simply make tag and push to remote. git ex tag hoge is same as git tag hoge and git push origin hoge. git ex tag other_remote hoge is same as git tag hoge and git push other_remote hoge. git ex tag -d hoge is same as git tag -d hoge and git push origin :hoge. git ex tag -d other_remote hoge is same as git tag -d hoge and git push other_remote :hoge.

git ffcheck

git ffcheck supports fast-forward merge.
You can check if current branch can do fast-forward merge to 'develop' and 'master' branch like this:

$ git ffcheck
[Warning] branch 'develop' is not exist
[SUCCESS] you can fast-forward merge to branch 'master'

git mktopic

git mktopic can make topic branch named by specific rule, 'feature/hoge'.

$ git mktopic featurename
Switched to a new branch 'feature/featurename'

$ git branch
  master
* feature/featurename

As you see, this command is 'git checkout -b' with prefix of branch name.

git mkreltag

git mkreltag is tag version of git mktopic. The prefix is 'rel_YYYYMMDD_hoge'. 'rel' means release. So you can make 'rel_YYYYMMDD_releasename' tag with this:

$ git mkreltag releasename
$ git tag
rel_20121106_releasename

You can use this command only from 'master' branch.

git remove-remote-branch

Do you know how to remove remote branch?
Default command is not intuitive, so try this command:

$ git remove-remote-branch origin branch_name
