the ultimate compact fzf gh extension

`gh-f` is the ultimate, compact and snappy `fzf` extension for `gh` cli. It addresses most of your daily GitHub workflow, if not all of it: `f` stands for filter, fzf or fomething felse.

## Installation

```
gh extension install gennaro-tedesco/gh-f
```

### Requirements

- fzf
- [gnu core utils](https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/)
- [bat](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat) (optional, if not detected it uses `less` as a pager, instead)

## Usage

Get started!

```
gh f
```

shows the help page. Or watch it in action:

```
gh f [cmd]
```

takes one of the following arguments or flags

| command | description | binds |
| :----------- | :---------------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| -a, adds | add files to staging area | enter: add files to staging area
ctrl-d: diff selected file |
| -r, runs | show github workflow runs and filter logs | enter: search run logs |
| -g, greps | grep in files in revision history | interactive prompt: insert regex, select files, show pattern in revision history |
| -p, prs | view, diff and checkout PR | enter: checkout selected PR
ctrl-d: diff selected PR
ctrl-v: view selected PR |
| -b, branches | checkout and diff branches | enter: checkout selected branch
ctrl-d: diff selected branch
ctrl-x: delete selected branch |
| -l, logs | view, diff and checkout from logs history | enter: checkout selected commit
ctrl-d: diff selected commit
ctrl-v: view commit patch |

ctrl-d diff against current branch |
| -s, search | search issues in any repository | interactive prompt: follow instructions |
| -m, myissue | search issues you opened somewhere | interactive prompt: follow instructions |
| -k, pick | cherrypick files between branches | enter: checkout cherrypicked files from branch |
| -e, envs | show git config list | enter: print selected config variable |
| -h, help | show help page |
| -V, version | print the current version |

Most commands follow the semantics of `git` standard instructions (so that you can remember them easily), only we append an `s` to avoid conflicts, should you have those commands lying around in the shell as aliases or for scripting.

## Customisation

If you want to skip typing `gh f` before each command you may alias it directly, for instance

```
gh alias set prs 'f -p' # show PRs
gh alias set l 'f -l' # show git logs
```

and likewise for the rest.

The prompt colours are defined via their ANSI sequences [here](https://github.com/gennaro-tedesco/gh-f/blob/37157bb30c2bceb99a5c9d6d199c543ce347690f/gh-f#L6-L9): change yourself accordingly, if you like different ones. Moreover notice that the rendering of text in the `fzf` preview window follows the options set in the `FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS` [env variable](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#environment-variables): if you want to replicate exactly what is shown in the demo, [here](https://github.com/gennaro-tedesco/dotfiles/blob/132eeec7d9573ca3ccd47a078d19029b75010b2b/zsh/zshrc#L43) are my settings.
