Git interactive is a set of small commands that aim at giving a few git commands interactive abilities with the help of the excellent fzf project, all that without moving out of your terminal.

2 git commands are covered:

• git checkout

  

• git branch --delete

  

The commands defined in this project should work on all POSIX-compliant shell, including bash and zsh.

Checkout git-fuzzy for a more complete interactive git experience in your terminal.

The only dependency is fzf, which is available on most platforms. Refer to their GitHub to have installation instructions.

⚠ This script will not work if dependencies are missing.

• Clone or download this repository
• Add the following lines to your .bashrc (if you are using bash) or .zshrc (if you are using zsh):

  source <PATH_TO_CLONED_REPO>/git-checkout-interactive.sh
  source <PATH_TO_CLONED_REPO>/git-delete-branch-interactive.sh

  If you only want to have the "checkout" commands, only add the first line; if you only want the "delete" ones, only add the second.
• Close and reopen your terminal (or run source .bashrc or source .zshrc)

Checkout commands allow to checkout git branches. 2 are defined in this project:

• gchk
• git_checkout_interactive

Usage: gchk [-i|--interactive] [<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>]

<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>: The name of a git branch (can be partial in interactive mode)

-i, --interactive: Runs the command in interactive mode

-r, --include-remote-branches: If the command runs interactively, only takes into account the remote branches

-a, --all: If the command runs interactively, take into account both the local and remote branches

Usage: git_checkout_interactive [-r|-a] [<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>]

<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>: The name of a git branch (can be partial in interactive mode)

-r, --include-remote-branches: If the command runs interactively, only takes into account the remote branches

-a, --all: If the command runs interactively, take into account both the local and remote branches

Delete commands allow to delete branches (both local branches and remote branches). 2 are defined in this project:

• gdel
• git_delete_interactive

Usage: gdel [-i|--interactive] [<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>]

<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>: The name of a git branch (can be partial in interactive mode)

-i, --interactive: Runs the command in interactive mode

-l, --local-only: If the command runs interactively, only allows to select and delete a local branch

-r, --remote-only: If the command runs interactively, only allows to select and delete a remote branch

Usage: git_delete_interactive [-l|-r] [<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>]

<PARTIAL-BRANCH-NAME>: The name of a git branch (can be partial in interactive mode)

-l, --local-only: Only allows to select and delete a local branch

-r, --remote-only: Only allows to select and delete a remote branch
