Git-mob

A command-line tool for social coding

This is a CLI tool for including your co-authors in your commits.

It is essentially a Rust clone of the git-mob NPM package.

Install

Just run cargo install git_mob and you should be all set.

If it does not seem to work, try to run git config --glebal commit.template .git/.gitmessage to ensure that you have configured your your gitmessage template to where git-mob is looking for it.

Examples

Add Alice, Bob, and yourself as a possible co-authors:

git add-coauthor a "Alice" alice@example.com
git add-coauthor b "bob" Bob@example.com
git add-coauthor me "me" myself.i@example.com

Set Alice as co-author, making your mob consist of you and Alice:
```
git mob a
```
Set both Alice and Bob as co-authors, making your mob consist of the three of you:
```
git mob a b
```
Set Alice as the main author for any commits you make, since she is the one doing most of the thinking anyway, and add yourself as a mob member:
```
git mob -o a b me
```
Edit Bob's name, since you accidentally capitalized his email instead of his name:
```
git edit-coauthor b --name "Bob" --email bob@example.com
```
Remove Bob as a possible co-author:
```
git delete-coauthor b
```
List all available co-authors:
```
git mob -l
```
Go back to coding by yourself again:
```
git solo
```

Working features

git mob <co-author-initials>
git add-coauthor <initials> "Co-author Name" <co-author-email-address>
git -o <initials> for overwriting the main author
git edit-coauthor [--name "Co-author Name"] [--email <co-author-email-address>]
git delete-coauthor <initials>
git mob -l
git solo

TODO

There are some missing features from the original NPM package, that are yet to be implemented, and then there is also a severe lack of tests and documentation.

Missing features

git mob-print
git suggest-coauthors
--installTemplate and --uninstallTemplate for prepare-commit-msg

Why clone an existing, working CLI tool?

Basically, I was looking for some decent size project to write in Rust, and I didn't have any other ideas.

The NPM package works just fine. There's just one thing that annoys me about it, and that is that I have to install it in once for every node version that is used in any repo I work in. With this approach, I only need to install it once.
