DiffDing

It's easy to get lost in what you're doing. Diff ding counts the changes in your repo and reminds you to commit your changes once you exceed a certain number of inserts and deletes.

Installation

cargo install diffding

Usage

diffding [interval] [threshold]

• interval: the number of seconds between checks (defaults to 10)
• threshold: the number of inserts and deletes allowed before a reminder (defaults to 100)

Configuration

You can configure diffding by creating a ~/.config/diffding/config.toml file in your home directory.

Example:

# ~/.config/diffding/config.toml

sound = "14409__acclivity__chimebar-f.wav"  # name of a sound file in `~/.config/diffding`
interval = 10                               # seconds between checks
threshold = 100                             # number of inserts and deletes allowed before a reminder
snooze_length = 5                           # number of minutes to snooze for

Custom Sounds

You can use any sound you like in place of the default bell

Place the file in ~/.config/diffding and set the sound option in the config file to the name of the file.

Supported formats:

• wav
• mp3
