oh-my-zsh plugin for easy switching between git repositories. Just type sgr <some part of you repo's name>
, press enter and you're there. For additional features, see below.
- Clone the git repository
git clone https://github.com/robin-mbg/switch-git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/switch-git
- Enable the plugin in your
.zshrc
plugins(
...
...
switch-git)
To update the plugin, you can use the sgu
(switch_git_update) command. This pulls the most recent version from git.
switch-git provides you with the sgr
(switch_git_repository) and sgb
(switch_git_branch) commands. Feel free to shorten the commands further by setting other aliases in your .zshrc
.
Simply calling sgr
calls on a fuzzy-finding window provided by fzf
to select one of your repositories. Instead of using the fuzzy finder, you can also directly add a search string. E.g. calling sgr switch
may lead you to the switch-git repository on your local hard drive.
switch-git also provides you with the ability to execute git commands in the found repository. If a command is provided the switch only happens temporarily in the background to execute the call. Your working directory will then be restored.
The following command, for example, goes to the switch-git repository, executes git pull --rebase
and then restores the working directory.
sgr switch pull --rebase
The sgb
command calls on an fzf
-provided interface to select and check out a git branch. Instead of using the fuzzy finder, you can also directly add add a search string. E.g. calling sgb feature
will lead to a switch to the latest-used feature branch.
