## Installation

```bash
cargo (b)install gitnow

# You can either use gitnow directly (and use spawned shell sessions)
gitnow

# Or install gitnow scripts (in your .bashrc, .zshrc) this will use native shell commands to move you around
eval $(gitnow init zsh)
git-now # Long 
gn # Short alias
```

## Reasoning

How many steps do you normally do to download a project?

1. Navigate to github.com
2. Search in your org for the project
3. Find the clone url
4. Navigate to your local github repositories path
5. Git clone `<project>` 
6. Enter new project directory

A power user can of course use `gh repo clone` to skip a few steps.

With gitnow

1. `git now`
2. Enter parts of the project name and press enter
3. Your project is automatically downloaded if it doesn't exist in an opinionated path dir, and move you there.
