Git Town provides additional Git commands that automate the creation, synchronization, shipping, and cleanup of Git branches. Compatible with all popular Git workflows like Git Flow, GitHub Flow, GitLab Flow, and trunk-based development. Supports mono-repos and stacked changes. Check out this screencast for an introduction.

Basic development commands

  • hack - create a new up-to-date feature branch off the main branch
  • sync - update existing branches, remove shipped branches
  • switch - switch between branches via text UI
  • propose - create a pull or merge request for a feature branch

Stacked changes

  • append - insert a new branch as a child of the current branch
  • diff-parent - show the changes committed to a feature branch
  • merge - merge two adjacent branches in a stack into one
  • prepend - insert a new branch between the current branch and its parent
  • set-parent - update the parent of a branch

Limit branch syncing

  • contribute - add commits to somebody else's feature branch
  • observe - track somebody else's feature branch without contributing to it
  • park - stop syncing one of your feature branches
  • prototype - sync but don't push a branch

Dealing with errors

  • continue - restart the last Git Town command after having resolved conflicts
  • skip - restart the last run Git Town command by skipping the current branch
  • status - displays or resets the current suspended Git Town command
  • undo - undo the most recent Git Town command

Setup and configuration

  • config setup - run the visual setup assistant
  • offline - start or stop running in offline mode

Advanced development commands
