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

okay so real quick β€” you're looking at GIT-PKGS(1) from the Git Pkgs Manual, and honestly? this page is a whole little vibe. it's the search command. it finds stuff. it slays. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

git-pkgs-search β€” bestie, it finds dependencies matching a pattern. that's literally the whole job and it does it gorgeously πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

git-pkgs search  [flags]

(no cap, that's it. two spaces before the flags, that's canon, we don't touch it πŸ™ˆ)


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Search for dependencies whose names match the given pattern. you give it a pattern, it goes looking through your dependencies, and it comes back with the ones whose names match. it's giving personal shopper energy πŸ›οΈπŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

  • --direct[=false] β€” only show direct dependencies and exclude lockfile ones. so like, the OGs only, not the transitive besties 🌈
  • -e, --ecosystem="" β€” filter by ecosystem. default is "" which is a mood but also means no filter, iykyk 🧚
  • -f, --format="text" β€” output format. your choices are text and json. default is text because we're chill like that πŸ“
  • -h, --help[=false] β€” help for search. press it when you're lost, it's fine, we've all been there 🫢

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these come from the parent command, they're not even search's own, they're heirlooms πŸ’œ

  • --color="auto" β€” when to colorize output. options are auto, always, never. default auto, because she reads the room ✨
  • --include-submodules[=false] β€” include git submodules when scanning for manifests. off by default, submodules gotta be invited πŸ”₯
  • -p, --pager[=false] β€” use pager for output. off by default. turn it on if your output is a novel πŸ“–
  • -q, --quiet[=false] β€” suppress non-essential output. for when you want the tea but not the small talk πŸ’€
