git-add-and-commit

Quickly add and commit multiple files with one command.

$ npm install -g git-add-and-commit
$ gac --help

Usage

Provide a list of file globs to match and a commit message. Matching is done via minimatch and done case-insensitively by default.

To add and commit all files under src/js/ and src/css/:

$ gac src/js/**/*.js src/css/**/*.css "Commit all js and css files"

This will also work...

$ gac .js .css "Commit all js and css files"

...but will also match any .js and .css file anywhere under the git root -- see disclaimer.

DISCLAIMER

I made this thing so that I could quickly type a substring of a file and it would match. So if a given glob doesn't match any files at first, it tries to match a massaged version of the glob and see if that matches anything. For instance, providing module will actually match something like root/some-child/js/modules/something/index.js. It will also match anything and everything containing module in the filename, so be careful!

Interactive

Because of this dangerous blindly-commit-any-goddamn-file attitude, there's an interactive version to help you see which files will be added by the given globs. Pressing tab will show a diff for all selected files. You can select a single file by using the arrow keys.

The full help screen

DESCRIPTION
    This command quickens the commit process for individual files. Files can be
    added by providing a list of file globs. For example, "src/**/*" will match
    all files of all subfolders of "src/". If the given glob is a substring of
    a filename a match will always be made, unless the --strict option is given.
    By default, all matches are made case-insensitively.

    You can specify which type of git files to match by using the --only and
    --except options. Git types must be deleted, modified, staged, or untracked
    (d, m, s, u), and separated by commas.


USAGE
    gac [options]
    gac [options] <path> <message>


OPTIONS
    -c, --case-sensitive          Match files case-sensitively.
    -e, --except=[type...]        Specify which type of git files to ignore.
    -h, --help                    Display this help screen.
    -i, --interactive             Interactively find and commit files.
    -o, --only=[type...]          Specify which type of git files to look for.
    -s, --silent                  Suppress success messages.
    -S, --strict                  Match files by only the exact glob given.
    -v, --version                 Print the version of this module.


EXAMPLES
    gac README "Add README" --case-sensitive
    gac html js scss "Commit all html, js, and scss files"
    gac --only modified,staged * "Commit all modified and staged files"
    gac -e=d,u * "Commit all files that are not deleted or untracked"
