1. NAME
git-auto-commit-mode - Emacs minor mode to automatically commit (and push) a git repository.
2. SYNOPSIS
M-x git-auto-commit-mode <RET>
3. DESCRIPTION
git-auto-commit-mode is an Emacs minor mode that tries to commit changes to a file after every save.
The commit message sent to git is always the filename of the file saved, relative to the root of the git repository.
4. USAGE
When enabled, git-auto-commit-mode uses the after-save-hook to
commit changes to git each time. If gac-automatically-push-p is
non-nil it also tries to push the HEAD to the current upstream.
Making sure that upstream is properly set is the responsibility of
the user.
4.1. Enabling
Since git-auto-commit-mode is a regular minor mode you have more than one option to enable it.
4.1.1. As a file-local variable
If you're using Emacs 24 or newer you should set an eval
file-local variable:
;; -*- eval: (git-auto-commit-mode 1) -*-
If you're using an older version of Emacs, that should be:
;; -*- mode: git-auto-commit -*-
4.1.2. As a directory-local variable
If you're using Emacs 24 or newer you should set an eval variable:
((nil . ((eval git-auto-commit-mode 1))))
If you're using an older version of Emacs, that should be:
((nil . ((mode . git-auto-commit))))
4.1.3. As a hook
To enable git-auto-commit-mode each time a certain-hook runs:
(add-hook 'certain-hook 'git-auto-commit-mode)
5. CUSTOMIZATION
git-auto-commit-mode is a simple mode, as such it offers little customization.
gac-automatically-push-p- A boolean value indicating whether or
not git-auto-commit-mode should try to push the git
repository's
HEADto its default upstream. Setting up the upstream is the user's responsibility.
