What is gut ?

Gut is an alternative CLI for Git. It provides consistent command naming and a useful set of features. For further information, please visit the website: https://gut-cli.dev

Example

cd my-awesome-project

# Init a new git repo
gut init

# Do some changes
touch my-billion-dollar-idea.txt

# Commit your new file
gut save # Alias of gut commit

# Sync your changes with the upstream
gut sync

Changelog

Features

• Gitignore templates now include ".gut" to avoid committing user configuration
• New command "git ignore update" to stop tracking previously committed files
• The init command now prompts for a gitignore template
• Errors generated from a dirty working tree are now more helpful
• gut save now allows you specify an external editor (instead of using the built-in editor)

Bug fixes

• Color printing on the Windows Command Prompt should no longer print ANSI codes
• gut squash now works with a local-only repository

Deprecation

Renaming the gut undo command

As pointed out by an HN commenter, the 'undo' command is not well-named.
Its role is to revert the working tree to the state of the last commit, not to undo the last commit.
This is a subtle but important difference. Therefore, we should rename the command to something more appropriate. I think 'reset' is a good candidate.
