Mac specific optimizations in ~/.gitconfig [closed]
I read that discuss开发者_高级运维ion about the content of "~/.gitconfig" on Linux: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/267761/what-does-your-gitconfig-contain
I know some Mac specific optimizations, such as using "mate" as default editor:
[core]
editor = mate -w
or using opendiff as diff editor:
[diff]
external = opendiff
Do you know other Mac specific optimizations (and/or tools) that I could install/configure in "~/.gitconfig" file in order to get a very user-friendly git?
I use opendiff and textmate as external tools for git. You can configure them by running the following commands in bash:
#TextMate as the default editor
git config --global core.editor "mate -w"
#Opendiff (FileMerge) to resolve merge conflicts:
git config --global merge.tool opendiff
#Opendiff (FileMerge) as diff tool
git config --global diff.tool opendiff
Alternatively you can configure the gitconfig file by adding the following:
[diff]
tool = opendiff
[merge]
tool = opendiff
[core]
editor = mate -w
The difftool and mergetool is only available after version 1.6.3
Since git reuses the same temporary file for commit messages, I recommend using
[core]
editor = mate -wl1
so TextMate puts the cursor onto the first line every time instead of remembering the cursor position from last time.
And if you create the following shell script...
#!/bin/sh
#
# ~/bin/git-opendiff.sh
#
/usr/bin/opendiff "$2" "$5" -merge "$1"
...and configure git to use it as external diff tool...
$ git config --global diff.external ~/bin/git-opendiff.sh
...you can use opendiff for diffs and merges.
I prefer to keep the default diff
command internal, for quick summaries at the terminal, and access the more advanced diff programs (I use MacVim) using the difftool
commmand. I describe the set up procedure here. The Mac-specific part is in my wrapper script, where I facultatively launch MacVim if it is available, then default to regular Vim. You can adapt to use TextMate, of course, if that is your preference.
