STG-PREV(1)

💅 STG-PREV(1)

okay so real quick — this is a page straight out of the StGit Manual, and it's lowkey one of the shortest ones ever, so grab a lil snack and let's go 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

stg-prev — it prints the name of the previous patch, that's literally it, that's the whole job 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

stg prev [OPTIONS]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So stg prev prints out the name of the previous patch. Periodt.

Now, bestie, what even is the "previous patch"? 💭 It's the applied patch that comes right before the current, topmost patch — like the one standing directly behind the main character in the lineup 👑

ngl there's a catch: if there aren't enough patches applied, you're gonna get an error message instead. The vibe check fails, no name for you 😭

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -b <branch>, --branch=<branch> — use <branch> instead of the current branch, iykyk 🌈
