NAME¶

git-repl - git read-eval-print-loop

SYNOPSIS¶

git-repl

git-repl [command...]

DESCRIPTION¶

Git read-eval-print-loop. Lets you run git commands without typing 'git'.

Commands can be prefixed with an exclamation mark (!) to be interpreted as a regular shell command.

Any arguments to git repl will be taken collectively as the first command to execute in the repl.

Type exit, quit, or q to end the repl session. Ctrl-D and Ctrl-C will also work.

COMMANDS¶

<command>

Interpreted as git <command>.

!<command>

Interpreted as <command> (not through git).

Equivalent of 'git ls-files'.

exit|quit|q

Ends the repl session.
