A simple commandline tool to pull gitignores from github.com/github/gitignore.
This way all you ever have to do is.
$ git init
$ ignore ruby
$ ignore osx
$ ignore vim
Boom you are ready to go!
With a new git repo and curated gitignores for Ruby, OSX and Vim.
Similar to what you see when you make a new repo through Githubs online interface
See github.com/github/gitignore for a full list of all the supported languages
Its the easiest way to fetch gitignores
I got irritated making repos then manually fetching gitignores. So I made this.
> gem install ignore
> ignore update
$ ignore ruby
This is will add github's ruby gitignore to a new or existing .gitignore in your current directory
2. Easy updates to sync with github.com/github/gitignore
ignore update
cp .gitignore ~/.ignores/custom.gitignore
(Just make sure the file is in the ~/.ignores folder and ends with .gitignore)
ignore show ruby
ignore list
just copy the zsh autocomplete function to wherever your autocomplete functions go (it depends on your config)
| Command | What it Does |
|---|---|
list |
Shows you all the gitignores in ~/.ignores directory |
update |
Updates to sync with github |
show <language> |
Prints contents of gitignore, best used with less command |
<language> |
Autogenerates or appends to current directory gitignore the specified languages .gitignore |
clean |
Empties your local ~/.ignores folder |
help |
Shows you pretty much same table |
Heres the todo list, these are features that make it easier to use, but I havent got around to it yet
- Autoupdate
- better docs
- bash Autocompletion
- Custom remotes for your own gitignores (see the lib/ignore/storage.rb for this)
If you want to help - just fork, push and pull request!
