NAME
git - GNU Interactive Tools
SYNTAX
git
gitps [ps(1) like parameters]
gitview filename
NOTE
The main configuration file of the GIT package is
.gitrc.TERM where TERM is the value of the environment
variable 'TERM' e.g for Linux console your environment
contains something like 'TERM=console' so the configura-
tion file name is .gitrc.console. You can (and should)
have a configuration file for each terminal type you use.
DESCRIPTION
git is a file system browser with some shell facilities
which was designed to make your work much easier and much
efficient.
gitps is an interactive process viewer/killer. It calls
internally the ps(1) utility so that's the reason why
gitps parameters are in fact ps(1) ones. Running gitps it
is self explanatory. Use the arrows, PageUp, PageDown,
Home, End, ^N, ^P, ^V, ESC v to move in the list, ^L to
refresh it and F10 or ^G to leave. You can change these
keys, just read the sections [GITPS-Setup], [GITPS-Color],
[GITPS-Monochrome] and [GITPS-Keys] in the configuration
file .gitrc.TERM. See also CONFIGURATION FILES.
gitview is an hex/ascii file viewer. Use the arrows,
PageUp, PageDown, Home, End, ^N, ^P, ^V, ESC v to move in
the file, ^L to refresh the screen and F10 or ^G to leave.
You can change those keys, just read the sections
[GITVIEW-Setup], [GITVIEW-Color], [GITVIEW-Monochrome] and
[GITVIEW-Keys] in the configuration file .gitrc.TERM. See
also CONFIGURATION FILES.
FILE-SYSTEM BROWSER
git is made of two panels. The left one and the right one.
Each one contains a file system directory. You can browse
the directory tree with the usual cursor keys and pressing
ENTER when you want to enter or leave a directory. You
may change the panels by pressing TAB. See also BUILT-IN
COMMANDS.
INPUT LINE
Under the two panels there is a shell like input line
which you can use to type normal shell commands. The input
line supports unlimited characters and keeps a history of
the typed commands. GIT uses the GNU history library for
that. See also BUILT-IN COMMANDS.
WARNINGS AND ERRORS REPORTING
Under the input line there is a status bar. You can see
there the status of the currently executed command, the
warnings and errors and you will be prompted if a decision
has to be taken.
