git-push-each

Push all the commits in a branch to their own branch, one commit at a time! \o/

What, Why!?

Because sometimes you need to trick Github and CI servers to test every commit individually. The benefit is nice, per-commit indicators.

Install

git clone https://github.com/jbenet/git-push-each
cd git-push-each
sudo cp git-push-each $(git --exec-path)

or instead of the last command above:

sudo ./install.sh

Usage

> git push-each --help
USAGE
    ./git-push-each [--clean] <remote> <branch-prefix>
    push each commit from stdin to its own branch.

OPTIONS
    --clean   delete all branches matching pattern:
              <branch-prefix><hash>

EXAMPLE
    > git cherry master | git push-each
    > git branch -r
    origin/gpe-18c4051fc502da15c3c279c37630f6d152ad6b3d
    origin/gpe-22ac071150daf8994f4891d57caeef3b4caf2571
    origin/master

    > git push-each --clean
    > git branch -r
    origin/master

# now, they will _each_ trigger a hook.

Your pull request could now look like this:

Oh yeah.

git push-each --clean

You can cleanup left-over branches in the remote with

git push-each --clean

This will delete any branches hanging around.

Warning: --clean does git push -f <remote> :<branch-prefix><hash>, so be careful with the prefix.

Options

• --clean removes the branches in the remote
• --dry-run prints out the commands to issue but does not run them

Arguments

• <remote> specify the remote
• <branch-prefix> specify a branch prefix
