GIT-NBMERGETOOL(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

git-nbmergetool — a git mergetool plugin for notebooks 💖 bestie, it's literally here to stop your .ipynb files from fighting

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the whole vibe. the usage goes a little something like this:

git-nbmergetool [-h] [--version] [--config]
                [--log-level {DEBUG,INFO,WARN,ERROR,CRITICAL}]
                {merge,config} ...

A git mergetool plugin for notebooks. that's the whole main character moment 🫶

It uses nbdime to merge notebooks instead of plain text merges of JSON. no cap — because merging raw notebook JSON by hand is giving chaos 😭

Wanna enable it in your global git config? say less:

git-nbmergetool config --enable [--global | --system]

And then use it with:

git mergetool [<commit> [<commit>]]

periodt 💅

🌸 positional arguments 🌸

• {merge,config} — the two moves it knows. pick your fighter ✨

---

💜 options 💜

• -h, --help — shows this help message and dips out. iconic, honestly 👑
• --version — shows the program's version number and exits. quick lil flex 🌈
• --config — lists the valid config keys and their current effective values. like a vibe check for your settings 🔥
• --log-level {DEBUG,INFO,WARN,ERROR,CRITICAL} — sets the log level by name. choose how loud you want the drama to be 💀

---

lowkey reminder bestie: those {merge,config} and {DEBUG,INFO,WARN,ERROR,CRITICAL} braces are the exact values, so type them like that, fr fr 🧚
