🌸 NAME 🌸

gitwhich, gitmkdirs, gitxgrep — helper programs for gnuit 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

gitwhich file ...
gitmkdirs path ...
gitxgrep grepcmd args ...

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

This manual page documents briefly the gitwhich, gitmkdirs and gitxgrep commands. These commands are internal to gnuit and should generally not be run directly.

not me saying this but... fr fr, do not just run these on your own. they are internal to gnuit. they're not for you, they're for the machine. respect the boundary. 🙈

🎀 gitwhich file ...

gitwitch returns with an exit status of 0 if any of its file arguments exist in the PATH, otherwise it returns 1.

like, it's a vibe check for your files. found one? 0, iconic, we love to see it. found none? 1, and honestly? it's giving nothing. 💀

🦋 gitmkdirs path ...

Creates the directory path and any required parent directories.

so you want a/b/c but only a exists? no worries babes, it builds the whole entire staircase. all the parents, all the way up. 👑

🌈 gitxgrep grepcmd args ...

Used as a helper script by gitrgrep(1), gitregrep(1), and gitrfgrep(1). Calls grepcmd, passing args to it.

literally just a middle-man. a messenger. it takes your grepcmd, hands over your args, and lets them do their thing. main character energy as a support role. 🧚

gitwhich, gitmkdirs and gitxgrep are part of gnuit, the GNU Interactive Tools.
