It's magit! A Emacs mode for Git.
|
|
|
|
I wrote magit while learning about git and trying to figure out how I
|
|
would be using git in a 'natural' way. Magit will grow and hopefully
|
|
become more coherent as I learn more about git and good ways to use
|
|
it. Feedback is welcome!
|
|
|
|
* Installing
|
|
|
|
Magit can be installed with the popular recipe of
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
This will put magit.el into /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp, where
|
|
Emacs should be able to find it. Then add
|
|
|
|
(require 'magit)
|
|
|
|
to your .emacs file.
|
|
|
|
* Getting started
|
|
|
|
To get started with magit, open any file in a git repository in Emacs
|
|
and run 'M-x magit-status'. Read the online help of magit-mode ('C-h
|
|
m' in the magit buffer), make some changes to your files, and try to
|
|
commit them.
|
|
|
|
* Learning more
|
|
|
|
The Magit User Manual describes things with more words than the online
|
|
help. You can read it in Emacs with 'C-u C-h i magit.info' for
|
|
example, or on the web at
