Installation

GPIT can be installed directly from PyPI:

pip install gpit

This tool requires Python 3.x. Make sure you have Python installed on your system.

Setting Up OpenAI API Key

Before using the tool, make sure to set your OpenAI API key as an environment variable:

export OPENAI_API_KEY='your_openai_api_key'

Alternatively, you can set it in a .env file in the same directory as the script. The most recommended way to save the key is through "Shell Profile Files": Open or create the .bashrc file:

nano ~/.bashrc

Add your export statement:

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key_here"

Save and exit. Apply the changes:

source ~/.bashrc

Verifying the Variable:

echo $OPENAI_API_KEY

Usage

Once installed, you can run GPIT from any Git repository on your system. Simply use the following command:

gpit

Follow the on-screen prompts to manage your Git operations.
