Usage

IMPORTANT:

Make sure your gitconfig file is configured. You must configure at least the user.email and user.name variables.

Also, the package currently favors an ssh setup that doesn't expect to be prompted for credentials in order to push/pull, .etc. Github has a guide to help you set that up here

If you are on a Windows machine, I recommend checking out this thread if you have issues pushing/pulling from a remote repository with this package. I also don't have the means to do my own user testing in a windows environment so I won't be immediately able to help troubleshoot windows problems.

Showing the Git-Plus Palette

  • Cmd-Shift-H on MacOS
  • Ctrl-Shift-H on Windows + Linux
  • Git Plus: Menu on the atom command palette.

Push/Pull/Fetch notifications

Notifications will appear in a console output above the status bar. This view can be toggled by clicking the 'git+' icon in the bottom right of the status bar.

Auto-Fetch

Keeps your local repo bang up to date by automatically fetching from all remotes in the background every minute by default. But this can be set to any interval up to an hour, or disabled if you prefer. A notification can also be set to keep you informed.

Commands

Commands are accessible for keybindings by dasherizing the command title. Add your own keybindings in your ~/.atom/keymap.cson file

Git Add == git-plus:add

Experimental Features

If you would like to use experimental features, enable them in the package settings.

  • Custom Commands

    If enabled, you can define your own commands in your atom init.coffee or init.js file. These commands will appear in both the atom command palette as well as the Git-Plus command palette. Just like any other commands, you can define keybindings for them as well.

    Example command for undoing the last commit:

    # In init.coffee
    atom.packages.onDidActivateInitialPackages () ->
    if gitPlus = atom.packages.getActivePackage('git-plus')?.mainModule.provideService()
      gitPlus.registerCommand 'atom-text-editor', 'custom-git-commands:undo-last-commit', ->
        gitPlus.getRepo() # If there are multiple repos in the project, you will be prompted to select which to use
        .then (repo) -> gitPlus.run repo, 'reset HEAD~1'
    

    The name of the command in the Git-plus palette will be the undasherized version of what you provided -> 'Undo Last Commit'.

    Please beware of giving your commands the same name(undo-last-commit) as existing commands. They will appear as duplicates in the Git-plus palette.

  • Stage Files Beta

    When enabled, the 'Unstage Files' and 'Stage Files' commands will be merged into one view where the staged status of multiple files can be toggled.
