💅 GIT-PKGS(1) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Git Pkgs Manual — page one of the iconic GIT-PKGS(1) saga. buckle up 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

git-pkgs-diff-driver — literally the Git textconv driver for lockfile diffs. that's her. that's the whole job 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

git-pkgs diff-driver [file] [flags]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so picture this: a git textconv driver that converts lockfiles to sorted dependency lists. why? because it makes lockfile diffs so much more readable by showing you the actual semantic changes instead of a chaotic wall of noise. it's giving clarity. it's giving main character energy. ✨

install it like this:

git pkgs diff-driver --install

and then?? use git diff normally — lockfiles will show sorted dependency lists. no cap, that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💖

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • -h, --help[=false] — help for diff-driver. your lil "what does this do again" button 🫶
  • --install[=false] — install the diff driver in git config. this is the moment, this is the slay 🔥
  • --uninstall[=false] — remove the diff driver from git config. breaking up (respectfully) 💀

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these ones she got from her parents, we love a family tree:

  • --color="auto" — when to colorize output: auto, always, never. aesthetics matter ngl 💅
  • --include-submodules[=false] — include git submodules when scanning for manifests. don't forget the little guys 🧚
  • -p, --pager[=false] — use pager for output. scroll responsibly 📜
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — suppress non-essential output. for when you need peace and quiet 🙈
