πŸ’… GIT-PKGS(1) β€” the Git Pkgs Manual, bestie edition πŸŽ€

okay so welcome to the Git Pkgs Manual ✨ this one's all about removing stuff, which honestly is so cathartic. Let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

git-pkgs-remove β€” Remove a dependency πŸ’€βœ¨ (yes bestie, we're breaking up with a package)


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

git-pkgs remove  [flags]

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

Remove a package dependency using the detected package manager. It literally sniffs out the package manager from the lockfiles in the current directory and then runs the appropriate remove command. no cap, it just figures it out for you 🧚

Examples:

git-pkgs remove lodash
git-pkgs remove rails
git-pkgs remove lodash -e npm

Look at those. Iconic. Not me being obsessed with a three-line example block πŸŽ€

  • -e, --ecosystem="" β€” filter to a specific ecosystem 🌈
  • -x, --extra=[] β€” extra arguments to pass to the package manager, like little bonus gifts 🎁
  • -h, --help[=false] β€” help for remove, the classic 🫢
