#+TITLE: git-auto-commit-mode
#+STARTUP: showall
* NAME
git-auto-commit-mode - Emacs minor mode to automatically commit (and
push) a git repository.
* SYNOPSIS
=M-x git-auto-commit-mode <RET>=
* 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.
* 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.
** Enabling
Since git-auto-commit-mode is a regular minor mode you have more
than one option to enable it.
*** As a file-local variable
If you're using Emacs 24 or newer you should set an =eval=
file-local variable:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
;; -*- eval: (git-auto-commit-mode 1) -*-
#+END_EXAMPLE
If you're using an older version of Emacs, that should be:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
;; -*- mode: git-auto-commit -*-
#+END_EXAMPLE
*** As a directory-local variable
If you're using Emacs 24 or newer you should set an =eval= variable:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
((nil . ((eval git-auto-commit-mode 1))))
#+END_EXAMPLE
If you're using an older version of Emacs, that should be:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
((nil . ((mode . git-auto-commit))))
#+END_EXAMPLE
*** As a hook
To enable git-auto-commit-mode each time a ~certain-hook~ runs:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
(add-hook 'certain-hook 'git-auto-commit-mode)
#+END_EXAMPLE
* 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 ~HEAD~ to its default upstream. Setting up the
upstream is the user's responsibility.
