git-derivative

A git hook to manage derivative files automatically.

For example if you checked out to a branch with different yarn.lock, git-derivative can run yarn install for you!

Installation

$ git derivative init
$ git derivative install # You may want to run this automatically for your project

You can write what to run in .gitderivative file.

[generators]
"yarn.lock": "yarn install"

Usage

$ git derivative update
$ git derivative install # if not configured to do this automatically

And now you can mostly forget about it.

Research alternative template engines

It is currently using tinytemplates but it isn't recommended by this purpose, as the crate was meant to be used with static templates available at build-time.
