Gitless version control system

Gitless is an experimental version control system built on top of Git. Many people complain that Git is hard to use. We think the problem lies deeper than the user interface, in the concepts underlying Git. Gitless is an experiment to see what happens if you put a simple veneer on an app that changes the underlying concepts. Because Gitless is implemented on top of Git (could be considered what Git pros call a "porcelain" of Git), you can always fall back on Git. And of course your coworkers you share a repo with need never know that you're not a Git aficionado.

Gitless Set of Commands

• gl init - create an empty repo or create one from an existing remote repo

• gl track - start tracking changes to files
• gl untrack - stop tracking changes to files
• gl diff - show changes to files
• gl commit - record changes in the local repo

Creating a Repository

Say you are in directory foo and you want turn it into a repository. You do this with thegl init command. This transforms the current working directory into an empty repository and you are now ready to start saving changes to files in foo:

$ mkdir foo
$ cd foo/
$ gl init
✔ Local repo created in /MyFiles/foo

In most cases there's already some existing repository you want to work on instead of starting with an empty repository. To make a local clone of a remote repository you can pass the URL of the repository as input to the same gl init command:

$ mkdir experiment $ cd experiment/ $ gl init https://github.com/spderosso/experiment ✔ Local repo created in /MyFiles/foo ✔ Initialized from remote https://github.com/spderosso/experiment
