[PATCH v8 00/12] Interactive git clean

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Updates since v7 series:

 * Eliminate global variable "**the_prefix".
 * Save relative paths in del_list.
 * Split 1/10 of v7 into 3 patches for readability.
 * Change orders of patches, thanks to Eric.
 * Update menu and hotkeys with the help of Eric.

Usage:

When the command enters the interactive mode, it shows the
files and directories to be cleaned, and goes into its
interactive command loop.

The command loop shows the list of subcommands available, and
gives a prompt "What now> ".  In general, when the prompt ends
with a single '>', you can pick only one of the choices given
and type return, like this:

    *** Commands ***
      1: clean         2: filter by pattern     3: select by numbers
      4. ask each      5. toggle flags: none    6. quit
      7: help
    What now> 2

You also could say `c` or `clean` above as long as the choice is unique.

The main command loop has 7 subcommands.

clean::

   Start cleaning files and directories, and then quit.

filter by pattern::

   This shows the files and directories to be deleted and issues an
   "Input ignore patterns>>" prompt. You can input space-seperated
   patterns to exclude files and directories from deletion.
   E.g. "*.c *.h" will excludes files end with ".c" and ".h" from
   deletion. When you are satisfied with the filtered result, press
   ENTER (empty) back to the main menu.

select by numbers::

   This shows the files and directories to be deleted and issues an
   "Select items to delete>>" prompt. When the prompt ends with double
   '>>' like this, you can make more than one selection, concatenated
   with whitespace or comma.  Also you can say ranges.  E.g. "2-5 7,9"
   to choose 2,3,4,5,7,9 from the list.  If the second number in a
   range is omitted, all remaining patches are taken.  E.g. "7-" to
   choose 7,8,9 from the list.  You can say '*' to choose everything.
   Also when you are satisfied with the filtered result, press ENTER
   (empty) back to the main menu.

ask each::

  This will start to clean, and you must confirm one by one in order
  to delete items. Please note that this action is not as efficient
  as the above two actions.

toggle flags::

  This lets you change the flags for git-clean, such as -x/-X/-d/-ff,
  and refresh the cleaning candidates list automatically.

quit::

  This lets you quit without do cleaning.

help::

  Show brief usage of interactive git-clean.
