git Tools

Various helper tools for working with git and github:

Useful aliases:

Show a diff of all files modified in the current branch against HEAD:

alias brdiff="def_branch=\$(git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD | sed 's@^refs/remotes/origin/@@'); git diff origin/\$def_branch..."

Same, but ignore white-space differences, adding --ignore-space-at-eol or -w:

alias brdiff-nows="def_branch=\$(git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD | sed 's@^refs/remotes/origin/@@'); git diff -w origin/\$def_branch..."

List all the files that were added or modified in the current branch compared to HEAD:

alias brfiles="def_branch=\$(git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD | sed 's@^refs/remotes/origin/@@'); git diff --name-only origin/\$def_branch..."

Once we have the list, we can now automatically open an editor to load just added and modified files:

alias bremacs="def_branch=\$(git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD | sed 's@^refs/remotes/origin/@@'); emacs \$(git diff --name-only origin/\$def_branch...) &"
