An improved git terminal

gituoso

An improved git terminal

Installation

In terminal:

git clone https://github.com/ahaasler/gituoso.git ~/.gituoso

Add this to the end your .bashrc file

. ~/.gituoso/gituoso.bash

NOTE: If you download the project in another location you may need to modify the lines in gituoso.bash where the git-components are sourced

Configuration

Arrows

To use arrows instead of ^ and v in the branch summary, change the next line in gituoso.bash to true

export GITUOSO_USEARROWS=true

NOTE: Those arrows are unicode characters, enabling this may show weird characters when using the reverse-i-search. If you don't care use the arrows, they look awesome!

Prompt reset

See also: Issue #1

Gituoso usually appends itself to your current prompt. If your prompt was already setting the window title you could miss the gituoso extras. To prevent this from happening you can enable this configuration property in gituoso.bash:

export GITUOSO_RESETPROMPT=true

NOTE: This will change your prompt to "user@host:/path/to/dir$", feel free to change this for your liking.

gituoso's Issues

Some terminals do not allow changing its title

I had a problem with your instructions; my title terminal didn't change with the 'git status' report. We've 'solved' with the next instruction in .bashrc file before your instruction line:
export PS1="\u@\h:\w$ [\e[0m]" (this is my normal prompt, so put here your custom prompt or whatever)

This is a 'patch' not a solution...
Runned in Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome2.

Add stash list info

Hello,
it would be beautiful if _YOU_ develop a new feature because I really need stash information when I am programming with gituoso.

Best wishes,
