Useful Git eXtensions for Development workflow at The Garage.

Inspired by the socialcast-git-extensions gem

Git Extensions for Workflow

Options

  • --trace or -v = verbose output for debugging commands
  • --pretend or -p = dry run commands and do not actually invoke operations

git start <new_branch_name (optional)>

update local repository with latest upstream changes and create a new feature branch

git update

update the local feature branch with latest remote changes plus upstream released changes.

git integrate <aggregate_branch_name (optional, default: staging)>

integrate the current feature branch into an aggregate branch (ex: prototype, staging)

options:

  • --comment or -c = Add a comment about the integration to an existing PR for the working branch. Create a new PR for that branch if one does not exist.
  • --resume or -r = Resume integration after resolving a merge conflict on the aggregate branch.

git review <feature_branch_name (optional, default: current_branch)>

create a pull request on github for peer review of the current branch. This command is re-runnable in order to re-assign pull requests.

options:

  • --assign or -a = assign pull request to github user
  • --open or -o = open pull request in default web browser.
  • --bump or -b = bump an existing pull request by posting a comment to re-review new changes
  • --approve = approve/signoff on pull request (with optional feedback)
  • --reject = reject pull request (with details)

NOTE: the --bump option will also update the pull request commit status to mark the branch as 'pending peer review'. This setting is cleared when a reviewer approves or rejects the pull request.

git release <feature_branch_name (optional, default: current_branch)

release the feature branch to master. This operation will perform the following:

  • pull latest code from remote feature branch
  • pull latest code from master branch
  • prompt user to confirm they actually want to perform the release
  • check if pull request commit status is currently successful
  • merge current branch into master
  • (optional) cleanup merged branches from remote server

options:

  • --cleanup = automatically cleanup merged branches after release complete

Extra Utility Git Extensions

git cleanup

delete released branches after they have been merged into master.

git nuke <aggregate_branch_name>

reset an aggregate branch (ex: prototype, staging) back to a known good state.

git buildtag

create a build tag for the current Travis-CI build and push it back to origin

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.
  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.
  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
