gitmopy

An interactive Python implementation of the Gitmoji convention: gitmoji.dev/

pipx install gitmopy

pipx? Yes, in most cases you don't want to use gitmopyas a library but rather as a standalone CLI and you should therefore use pipx rather than pip to install it. pip install gitmopy will work too if that's really what you want.

How to use

• I typically use $ gitmopy commit --add --keep-alive
• Navigate through options with ⬆️ and ⬇️
• Select option with space
• Validate selection with enter
• Press tab to auto-complete
  • Press tab on an empty line to see history
• Restart commit with crtl+c
  • The keyboard interruption will be caught once, then press enter to restart
• Push (and set upstream if need be)
• Commit again 🔄

You can also select another set of default emojis tailored towards AI/ML development by running gitmopy config then pressing Enter and choosing ai-devmojis as the config option.

Use your own emojis by editing the "custom emojis" file listed by gitmopy info!

Suggested shortcuts

alias gpy="gitmopy"
alias gpyc="gitmopy commit"
alias gpya="gitmopy commit --add"
alias gpyk="gitmopy commit --add --keep-alive"

Examples

# Typical daily use-case
# ----------------------

# continuously commit, interactively select files to stage
$ gitmopy commit --add --keep-alive

# same using an alias, + push after every commit (could be dangerous)
$ gpyk --push


# Specific usage
# --------------

# commit currently staged files. Will fail if no file is staged.
$ gitmopy commit

# Enable interactive file selection if no file is currently staged. Ignored if
# there are staged files.
$ gitmopy commit --add

# Commit continuously: don't leave the CLI after the first commit but restart
# the commit procedure.
$ gitmopy commit --keep-alive

# Push to remote repositories after commit.
# Interactively select remotes to push to if there are more than 1.
$ gitmopy commit --push

# Push to specific remotes
$ gitmopy commit --push --remote origin --remote upstream

# Make and display a commit message without staging/committing/pushing
$ gitmopy commit --dry

# configure gitmopy
$ gitmopy config

# print version, data paths and current configuration
$ gitmopy info

# print helps
$ gitmopy --help
$ gitmopy commit --help

⚠️ The sync feature is still experimental. It will pull then push but in the case of several remotes and the branch not existing on one of them, I recommend you deal with it with git manually.
