Subject: [RFC] new subcommand: git sync
Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2021 10:08:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAAdc0hwmR7BF53_66LNaceLrkFPDphU-y2sLEGB_1YoR5ErQsg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi folks,

I created a new "git sync" sub-command a few months ago to deal with the pull
request workflow.

Its goals are to:
 - keep all configured branches synchronized with the remotes (--set-upstream)
 - do not touch your wip feature branches (which has diverged from upstream)
 - prune the remotes

As I use it on a daily basis, to synchronize the remotes and then be able to
quickly rebase my pull requests. I think it's worth sharing. What do you think?

For now it is a simple shell script available here:
https://github.com/jmlemetayer/one-time-setup/blob/main/git-sync

If you think it's a good idea, I'll propose a series of patches with the new
sub-command, the manual page and the associated tests.

Best regards,
Jean-Marie Lemetayer
