Working with git a lot I decided I needed some git status in my
prompt.
I searched the web and some solutions where almost what I wanted and this one by Sebastian Celis came very close.
But it didn’t work with my version of zsh, because that didn’t seem to
understand the =~ operator.
I also think Sebastian makes things over complicated and so I changed some things aroud.
This is what I came up with:
I was working on a customers project and I had to change a lot of files.
This could easily be done with the sed and find commands, but I
wanted these changes to be checked in into git as well. And I also
wanted the git keywords expanded.
There was always the trick to edit all the files with sed, then edit
them again with git.vi and just press ZZ for all files. This would
be tedious, I know.
It took some time, but I did manage to make a new version of git.vi.
It has some errors corrected and some extra features.
And now it comes with its own, shiny, new man page. (git.vi.1).
Come and g[ei]t it. It’s in the files section or on github.
Or clone it with: ~ git clone https://github.com/tonk/git.vi.git ~
As I develop some scripts and other things for fun I decided to make some of these more public.
The following projects can be found on Github, with this URL

Have fun ans let me know what you think.
Last time I blogged that the developers of git are a really busy
bunch.
Well, they really are. I found out I almost missed a complete release, so with this set I’m catching up.
Today I build version 1.7.0.3.
By now, you know where to find them.
The next entry will be more interresting, not only git building.
The developers of git are a really busy bunch. Today a new git
(1.7.0.2) arrived, again, so I did build the RPM’s.
By now, you know where to find them.
