# git abia

Austin is awesome. ABIA (Austin-Bergstrom International Airport), not so much.

One thing that sucks about ABIA is that the wireless there blocks the ports

used by ssh and git protocols, meaning that if your git remotes are set to one

of those, you are screwed. The solution is to use https, but there are good

reasons to not want to use that always (e.g., the other two do not require a

password), and regardless, it's a pain to switch your remotes when all you

want to do is get some work done while you're waiting for you plane.

git abia solves this by automatically switching your remotes to use https. To

use, just replace a command like

```bash

$ git fetch remotename

```

with

```bash

$ git abia fetch remotename

```

## Installation

Just put git abia somewhere on your `PATH`. git will automatically pick it up.

## Notes

This works with GitHub urls. It will work with other services if they use the

same url format.

It works by using `git remote set-url` to temporarily change `git@` and

`git://` urls to `https://`, and then setting them back.  Note that you may

have to enter your GitHub username and password, especially if you are

pushing.

I suck at bash. I just wrote this up on a plane one day after sitting in

ABIA. If you know how to do this better, pull requests are welcome.
