GIT-MAGIC(1)

💖 GIT-MAGIC(1) 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair, because git-magic is about to make your whole commit-and-push routine effortless. This one lives in the Git Extras collection, and it's lowkey the laziest-genius command you'll ever meet. ✨

---

🦋 NAME 🦋

git-magic — automate add/commit/push routines 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

git-magic [-a] [-m msg] [-e] [-p] [-f]

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the tea. git-magic looks at your git status --porcelain output and whips up a summary of changes to use as your commit message. No more staring at a blank message box like 😭.

Then it commits your staged changes with that generated message, and — if you want — it opens your editor so you can tweak the generated message. Optional. Your call, queen.

And bc we're extra 💅, staging and pushing can also be automated. Optional too. The whole vibe is "let the command handle it."

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -a — adds everything, including those untracked files you've been ignoring. 🙈
• -m msg — use msg as your commit message. Give it multiple -m options and their values get concatenated as separate paragraphs, fr fr. This gets passed to the git commit command. The generated summary gets appended to your user-given messages.
• -e — lets you edit the generated message even further. This gets passed to the git commit command too.
• -p — runs git push after the commit. main character energy. 🔥
• -f — adds the --force-with-lease option to the git push command, for safer force pushing. 💀 (not me reminding you that force pushing is scary — but this is the responsible way to do it.)
• -h — prints the synopsis. a little peek, a little refresher. 🎀
