Utilities

gr

Description

Get the nearest git root above current working directory (if it exists).

Usage

Sometimes you want to quickly go to nearest git root of current project. Add this shell function to your shell's initialization script:

function cg() {
    local groot=$(tt gr 2>/dev/null)
    if [[ -n $groot ]]; then
        cd $groot
    fi
}

Then, call cg to quickly jump from your cwd to git root:

$ pwd
/home/r2d2/repos/tinytools/src/modules
$ cg
$ pwd
/home/r2d2/repos/tinytools
$ cd -
$ pwd
/home/r2d2/repos/tinytools/src/modules

bak

Append a tilde (~) to the names of given files/directories.

Usage

$ alias bak="tt bak"
$
$ touch testfile
$ mkdir testdir
$ ls
testdir/  testfile
$ bak testdir testfile
renamed "<absolute path>/testfile" -> "<absolute path>/testfile~"
renamed "<absolute path>/testdir" -> "<absolute path>/testdir~"
