NAME
|
||
|
|
----
|
||
|
|
git-gui - A portable graphical interface to Git
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
'git gui' [<command>] [arguments]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
A Tcl/Tk based graphical user interface to Git. git-gui focuses
|
||
|
|
on allowing users to make changes to their repository by making
|
||
|
|
new commits, amending existing ones, creating branches, performing
|
||
|
|
local merges, and fetching/pushing to remote repositories.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unlike gitlink:gitk[1], git-gui focuses on commit generation
|
||
|
|
and single file annotation, and does not show project history.
|
||
|
|
It does however supply menu actions to start a gitk session from
|
||
|
|
within git-gui.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git-gui is known to work on all popular UNIX systems, Mac OS X,
|
||
|
|
and Windows (under both Cygwin and MSYS). To the extent possible
|
||
|
|
OS specific user interface guidelines are followed, making git-gui
|
||
|
|
a fairly native interface for users.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
COMMANDS
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
blame::
|
||
|
|
Start a blame viewer on the specified file on the given
|
||
|
|
version (or working directory if not specified).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
browser::
|
||
|
|
Start a tree browser showing all files in the specified
|
||
|
|
commit (or 'HEAD' by default). Files selected through the
|
||
|
|
browser are opened in the blame viewer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
citool::
|
||
|
|
Start git-gui and arrange to make exactly one commit before
|
||
|
|
exiting and returning to the shell. The interface is limited
|
||
|
|
to only commit actions, slightly reducing the application's
|
||
|
|
startup time and simplifying the menubar.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
version::
|
||
|
|
Display the currently running version of git-gui.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Examples
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
git gui blame Makefile::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Show the contents of the file 'Makefile' in the current
|
||
|
|
working directory, and provide annotations for both the
|
||
|
|
original author of each line, and who moved the line to its
|
||
|
|
current location. The uncommitted file is annotated, and
|
||
|
|
uncommitted changes (if any) are explicitly attributed to
|
||
|
|
'Not Yet Committed'.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git gui blame v0.99.8 Makefile::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Show the contents of 'Makefile' in revision 'v0.99.8'
|
||
|
|
and provide annotations for each line. Unlike the above
|
||
|
|
example the file is read from the object database and not
|
||
|
|
the working directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git gui citool::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make one commit and return to the shell when it is complete.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git citool::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Same as 'git gui citool' (above).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git gui browser maint::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Show a browser for the tree of the 'maint' branch. Files
|
||
|
|
selected in the browser can be viewed with the internal
|
||
|
|
blame viewer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See Also
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
'gitk(1)'::
|
||
|
|
The git repository browser. Shows branches, commit history
|
||
|
|
and file differences. gitk is the utility started by
|
||
|
|
git-gui's Repository Visualize actions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other
|
||
|
|
-----
|
||
|
|
git-gui is actually maintained as an independent project, but stable
|
||
|
|
versions are distributed as part of the Git suite for the convience
|
||
|
|
of end users.
|
||
|
|
|
||
