Git Cola Accessories

Bash shell completion

The git-cola-completion.bash script can be sourced by .bashrc or /etc/bash_completion.d to provide completion for git cola on the command-line.

Git Cola's bash completion script requires that you have Git's git-completion.bash setup via your .bashrc. Git Cola's completion script is a plugin / extension to Git's git-completion.bash.

Zsh shell completion

The _git-cola zsh completion script is a completion script for zsh. This script is only able to offer completions for the dashed git-cola command. Completions for git cola are not currently available.

To use it, copy _git-cola to the location where you keep your zsh completion scripts (ie. mkdir -p ~/.config/zsh/completion && cp _git-cola ~/.config/zsh/completion) and then add the directory to zsh's $fpath in your ~/.zshrc before initializing the completion system using compinit:

# ~/.zshrc shell completion setup
fpath=(~/.config/zsh/completion $fpath)
autoload -U +X compinit
compinit

macOS-related files

The darwin directory contains resources for creating Mac OS X git-cola.app application bundles.

Windows-related files

The win32 directory contains packaging-related utilities and resources for the Windows installer. If you're developing git-cola on Windows then you can use the cola and dag helper scripts to launch git-cola from your source tree without needing to have python.exe in your path.

Uh oh!
