πŸ’– GIT-PKGS(1) πŸ’–

okay so this is the Git Pkgs Manual bestie β€” like, the whole git-pkgs(1) manual family, and today we're doing the reindex page specifically. sit down, grab a lil snack, we're learning ✨


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

git-pkgs-reindex β€” the one where you update the database with new commits. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

git-pkgs reindex [flags]

literally that's it. short queen energy πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the tea β˜• β€” this command incrementally updates the git-pkgs database with all the commits that landed since the last analysis. incremental, meaning it doesn't redo everything from scratch like some dramatic main character, it just catches up on what's new πŸ’…

basically: you pull new changes, and then you run this. that's the whole workflow, no cap. think of it as your database going "wait wait wait, hold on, lemme see what happened since last time" 🧚

and when you don't specify a branch? it just goes ahead and updates all the tracked branches. all of them. every single one. generous icon behavior honestly πŸ’–


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -b, --branch="" β€” the branch you wanna reindex. and yeah, the default is "", which lowkey means all tracked branches β€” so if you say nothing, it does everything πŸŒ€
  • -h, --help[=false] β€” the help for reindex. yes bestie, [=false] is the default, so it does NOT spam you with help unless you ask. respectful 🫢

πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS πŸ‘‘

these aren't even reindex's own flags β€” they're handed down from the parent command like a lil family heirloom πŸŽ€

  • --color="auto" β€” when to colorize output. your choices are auto, always, never. pick your fighter 🌈
  • --include-submodules[=false] β€” include git submodules when scanning for manifests. default is [=false], so submodules stay out unless you literally invite them in πŸ™ˆ
  • -p, --pager[=false] β€” use pager for output. [=false] by default, so no pager unless you want the scroll experience πŸ“œ
  • -q, --quiet[=false] β€” suppress non-essential output. [=false] default. perfect for when you want it to just shut up and work 🀫
