Introduction

This is a collection of simple command-line scripts, bash aliases, and bash utilities that make using git even easier.

The command-line scripts include:

• feature - make working with feature branches easier
• release- make working with release branches and tags easier
• xgrep- make using git-grep easier

The command-line scripts are written in Ruby 2.x using just the standard libraries and do not require any gems to be installed. For OS X users, these should just work out-of-box.

The bash utilities come directly from the git source contrib and include:

• support for tab completion
• support for repository status in your shell prompt
