gex-0.2.1 is not a library.
Gex
Git workflow improvement CLI tool inspired by Magit. This project is still under initial development, but I am actively dogfooding it and features should be added relatively quickly.
Aims
Primarily, this is a personal project since I recently switched to Neovim from Emacs and miss the simplicity and efficiency of using Magit. However, I do have some general aims, which are subject to change:
- Simple - uncluttered UI.
- Intuitive - it should be easy to learn to use gex.
- Cross compatible - primary focus on Linux, but should work well on Windows and MacOS.
- Configurable - certain preferences in gex should be configurable to suit your own workflow.
- Comprehensive - you should be able to use gex to do everything you can do in git.
Installation
Gex is hosted on crates.io. You can either install from source, or you can use cargo:
$ cargo install gex
Usage
To enter gex, simply type gex in console.
$ gex
