.SH "NAME"
\fBgit\-sh\fR \-\- a git shell
.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBgit\-sh\fR
.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBgit\-sh\fR starts an interactive \fBbash(1)\fR session modified for git\-heavy
workflows. Typical usage is to change into the directory of a git work tree or
bare repository and run the \fBgit\-sh\fR command to start an interactive shell
session.
.
.P
Top\-level command aliases are created for all core \fBgit(1)\fR subcommands, git\-sh
builtin aliases (see \fIBUILTIN ALIASES\fR), and git command aliases defined in \fB~/.gitconfig\fR.
.
.SH "BUILTIN ALIASES"
\fBgit\-sh\fR loads a set of standard aliases in addition to all core git commands.
The builtin aliases are overridden by aliases defined in the user or system
gitconfig files.

.SH "CUSTOM ALIASES"
Anything defined in the \fB[alias]\fR section of the repository, user, or system git
config files are also available as top\-level shell commands. Assuming a \fB~/.gitconfig\fR that looked like this:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
[alias]
  ci = commit \-\-verbose
  ca = commit \-a
  d  = diff
  s  = status
  thanks = !git\-thanks
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
... you might then have the following shell session:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
master!something> echo "stuff" >somefile
master!something*> s
M  somefile
master!something*> d
diff \-\-git a/somefile b/somefile
\-\- a/somefile
++ b/somefile
@@ \-0,0 +1 @@
+ stuff
master!something*> ca \-m "add stuff"
master!something> thanks HEAD
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SS "PROMPT"
The default prompt shows the current branch, a bang (\fB!\fR), and then the relative
path to the current working directory from the root of the work tree.  If the
work tree includes modified files that have not yet been staged, a dirty status
indicator (\fB*\fR) is also displayed.
.
.P
The git\-sh prompt includes ANSI colors when the git \fBcolor.ui\fR option is set and
enabled. To enable git\-sh's prompt colors explicitly, set the \fBcolor.sh\fR config
value to \fBauto\fR:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
$ git config \-\-global color.sh auto
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
Customize prompt colors by setting the \fBcolor.sh.branch\fR, \fBcolor.sh.workdir\fR,
and \fBcolor.sh.dirty\fR git config values:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
$ git config \-\-global color.sh.branch 'yellow reverse'
$ git config \-\-global color.sh.workdir 'blue bold'
$ git config \-\-global color.sh.dirty 'red'
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
See \fIcolors in git\fR for information.
.
.SH "COMPLETION"
Bash completion support is automatically enabled for all git built\-in commands
and also for aliases defined in the user \fB~/.gitconfig\fR file. The auto\-completion
logic is smart enough to know an alias \fBd\fR that expands to \fBgit\-diff\fR should use
the same completion configuration as the \fBgit\-diff\fR command.
.
.P
The completion code is a slightly modified version of the git bash completion
script shipped with the core git distribution. The script is built into the\fBgit\-sh\fR executable at compile time and need not be obtained or installed
separately.
.
.SH "CUSTOMIZING"
Most \fBgit\-sh\fR behavior can be configured by editing the user or system gitconfig
files (\fB~/.gitconfig\fR and \fB/etc/gitconfig\fR) either by hand or using \fBgit\-config(1)\fR. The \fB[alias]\fR section is used to create basic command aliases.
.
.P
The \fB/etc/gitshrc\fR and \fB~/.gitshrc\fR files are sourced (in that order)
immediately before the shell becomes interactive.
.
.P
The \fB~/.bashrc\fR file is sourced before either \fB/etc/gitshrc\fR or \fB~/.gitshrc\fR.
Any bash customizations defined there and not explicitly overridden by \fBgit\-sh\fR
are also available.
.
.SH "ENVIRONMENT"
.
.TP
\fBPS1\fR
Set to the dynamic git\-sh prompt. This can be customized in the \fB~/.gitshrc\fR
or \fB/etc/gitshrc\fR files.
.
.TP
\fBGIT_DIR\fR
Explicitly set the path to the git repository instead of assuming the
nearest \fB.git\fR path.
.
.TP
\fBGIT_WORK_TREE\fR
Explicitly set the path to the root of the work tree instead of assuming
the nearest parent directory with a \fB.git\fR repository.
.
