# ⌨ Keybindings
| Key | Action |
| :-------------------------------------------: | ------------------------------------------- |
| Enter | Confirm |
| Tab | Toggle mark and move down |
| Shift - Tab | Toggle mark and move up |
| ? | Toggle preview window |
| Alt - W | Toggle preview wrap |
| Ctrl - S | Toggle sort |
| Ctrl - R | Toggle selection |
| Ctrl - Y | Copy commit hash/stash ID* |
| Ctrl - K / P | Selection move up |
| Ctrl - J / N | Selection move down |
| Alt - K / P | Preview move up |
| Alt - J / N | Preview move down |
| Alt - E | Open file in default editor (when possible) |
\* Available when the selection contains a commit hash or a stash ID.
For Linux users `FORGIT_COPY_CMD` should be set to make copy work. Example: `FORGIT_COPY_CMD='xclip -selection clipboard'`.
# ⚙ Options
Options can be set via environment variables. They have to be **exported** in
order to be recognized by `forgit`.
For instance, if you want to order branches in `gcb` by the last committed date you could:
```shell
export FORGIT_CHECKOUT_BRANCH_BRANCH_GIT_OPTS='--sort=-committerdate'
```
## shell aliases
You can change the default aliases by defining these variables below.
(To disable all aliases, Set the `FORGIT_NO_ALIASES` flag.)
``` bash
forgit_log=glo
forgit_reflog=grl
forgit_diff=gd
forgit_add=ga
forgit_reset_head=grh
forgit_ignore=gi
forgit_checkout_file=gcf
forgit_checkout_branch=gcb
forgit_branch_delete=gbd
forgit_checkout_tag=gct
forgit_checkout_commit=gco
forgit_revert_commit=grc
forgit_clean=gclean
forgit_stash_show=gss
forgit_stash_push=gsp
forgit_cherry_pick=gcp
forgit_rebase=grb
forgit_blame=gbl
forgit_fixup=gfu
```
## git integration
You can use forgit as a sub-command of git by making `git-forgit` available in `$PATH`:
```sh
# after `forgit` was loaded
PATH="$PATH:$FORGIT_INSTALL_DIR/bin"
```
*Some plugin managers can help do this.*
Then, any forgit command will be a sub-command of git:
```cmd
git forgit log
git forgit add
git forgit diff
```
Optionally you can add [aliases in git](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Git-Aliases):
```sh
git config --global alias.cf 'forgit checkout_file'
```
And use forgit functions via a git alias:
```sh
git cf
```
## git options
If you want to customize `git`'s behavior within forgit there is a dedicated variable for each forgit command.
These are passed to the according `git` calls.
| Command | Option |
| -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `ga` | `FORGIT_ADD_GIT_OPTS` |
| `glo` | `FORGIT_LOG_GIT_OPTS` |
| `grl` | `FORGIT_REFLOG_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gd` | `FORGIT_DIFF_GIT_OPTS` |
| `grh` | `FORGIT_RESET_HEAD_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gcf` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_FILE_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gcb` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_BRANCH_GIT_OPTS`, `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_BRANCH_BRANCH_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gbd` | `FORGIT_BRANCH_DELETE_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gct` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_TAG_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gco` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_COMMIT_GIT_OPTS` |
| `grc` | `FORGIT_REVERT_COMMIT_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gss` | `FORGIT_STASH_SHOW_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gsp` | `FORGIT_STASH_PUSH_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gclean` | `FORGIT_CLEAN_GIT_OPTS` |
| `grb` | `FORGIT_REBASE_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gbl` | `FORGIT_BLAME_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gfu` | `FORGIT_FIXUP_GIT_OPTS` |
| `gcp` | `FORGIT_CHERRY_PICK_GIT_OPTS` |
## pagers
Forgit will use the default configured pager from git (`core.pager`,
`pager.show`, `pager.diff`) but can be altered with the following environment
variables:
| Use case | Option | Fallbacks to |
| ------------ | ------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| common pager | `FORGIT_PAGER` | `git config core.pager` _or_ `cat` |
| pager on `git show` | `FORGIT_SHOW_PAGER` | `git config pager.show` _or_ `$FORGIT_PAGER` |
| pager on `git diff` | `FORGIT_DIFF_PAGER` | `git config pager.diff` _or_ `$FORGIT_PAGER` |
| pager on `git blame` | `FORGIT_BLAME_PAGER` | `git config pager.blame` _or_ `$FORGIT_PAGER` |
| pager on `gitignore` | `FORGIT_IGNORE_PAGER` | `bat -l gitignore --color always` _or_ `cat` |
| git log format | `FORGIT_GLO_FORMAT` | `%C(auto)%h%d %s %C(black)%C(bold)%cr%reset` |
## fzf options
You can add default fzf options for `forgit`, including keybindings, layout, etc.
(No need to repeat the options already defined in `FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS`)
``` bash
export FORGIT_FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="
--exact
--border
--cycle
--reverse
--height '80%'
"
```
Customizing fzf options for each command individually is also supported:
| Command | Option |
|----------|-----------------------------------|
| `ga` | `FORGIT_ADD_FZF_OPTS` |
| `glo` | `FORGIT_LOG_FZF_OPTS` |
| `grl` | `FORGIT_REFLOG_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gi` | `FORGIT_IGNORE_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gd` | `FORGIT_DIFF_FZF_OPTS` |
| `grh` | `FORGIT_RESET_HEAD_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gcf` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_FILE_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gcb` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_BRANCH_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gbd` | `FORGIT_BRANCH_DELETE_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gct` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_TAG_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gco` | `FORGIT_CHECKOUT_COMMIT_FZF_OPTS` |
| `grc` | `FORGIT_REVERT_COMMIT_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gss` | `FORGIT_STASH_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gsp` | `FORGIT_STASH_PUSH_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gclean` | `FORGIT_CLEAN_FZF_OPTS` |
| `grb` | `FORGIT_REBASE_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gbl` | `FORGIT_BLAME_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gfu` | `FORGIT_FIXUP_FZF_OPTS` |
| `gcp` | `FORGIT_CHERRY_PICK_FZF_OPTS` |
Complete loading order of fzf options is:
1. `FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS` (fzf global)
2. `FORGIT_FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS` (forgit global)
3. `FORGIT_CMD_FZF_OPTS` (command specific)
Examples:
- `ctrl-d` to drop the selected stash but do not quit fzf (`gss` specific).
```sh
export FORGIT_STASH_FZF_OPTS='
--bind="ctrl-d:reload(git stash drop $(cut -d: -f1 <<<{}) 1>/dev/null && git stash list)"
'
```
- `ctrl-e` to view the logs in a vim buffer (`glo` specific).
```sh
export FORGIT_LOG_FZF_OPTS='
--bind="ctrl-e:execute(echo {} |grep -Eo [a-f0-9]+ |head -1 |xargs git show |vim -)"
'
```
## other options
| Option | Description | Default |
|-----------------------------|-------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
| `FORGIT_LOG_FORMAT` | git log format | `%C(auto)%h%d %s %C(black)%C(bold)%cr%Creset` |
| `FORGIT_PREVIEW_CONTEXT` | lines of diff context in preview mode | 3 |
| `FORGIT_FULLSCREEN_CONTEXT` | lines of diff context in full-screen mode | 10 |
| `FORGIT_DIR_VIEW` | command used to preview directories | `tree` if available, otherwise `find` |
# 📦 Optional dependencies
- [`delta`](https://github.com/dandavison/delta) / [`diff-so-fancy`](https://github.com/so-fancy/diff-so-fancy): For better human-readable diffs.
- [`bat`](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat.git): Syntax highlighting for `gitignore`.
- [`emoji-cli`](https://github.com/wfxr/emoji-cli): Emoji support for `git log`.
# Completions
## Bash
- Put [`completions/git-forgit.bash`](https://github.com/wfxr/forgit/blob/master/completions/git-forgit.bash) in
`~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions` to have bash tab completion for `git forgit` and configured git aliases.
- Source [`completions/git-forgit.bash`](https://github.com/wfxr/forgit/blob/master/completions/git-forgit.bash) explicitly to have
bash tab completion for forgit shell functions and aliases (e.g., `gcb ` completes branches).
## Zsh
- Put [`completions/_git-forgit`](completions/_git-forgit) in a directory in your `$fpath` (e.g., `/usr/share/zsh/site-functions`) to have zsh tab completion for `git forgit` and configured git aliases, as well as shell command aliases, such as `forgit::add` and `ga`
If you're having issues after updating, and commands such as `forgit::add` or aliases `ga` aren't working, remove your completions cache and restart your shell.
```zsh
> rm ~/.zcompdump
> zsh
```
# 💡 Tips
- Most of the commands accept optional arguments (e.g., `glo develop`, `glo f738479..188a849b -- main.go`, `gco master`).
- `gd` supports specifying revision(e.g., `gd HEAD~`, `gd v1.0 README.md`).
- Call `gi` with arguments to get the wanted `.gitignore` contents directly(e.g., `gi cmake c++`).
