grunt-git

Git commands for grunt.

Build Status

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-git --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-git');

Upgrading from v0.2.x

The gitcommit command used to call git add for you. This is no longer the case. Be sure to add a gitadd task whenever there might be new files to commit. The ignoreEmpty option is no longer supported.

Universal options

The following options may be applied to any task

options.verbose

Type: boolean Default value: none

Console output from the git task will be piped to the output of the grunt script. Useful for debugging.

options.cwd

Type: string Default value: none

Change the current working directory before executing the git call. Useful for performing operations on repositories that are located in subdirectories. Note: When performing commands that provide files (e.g. gitcommit), it is also necessary to specify the cwd for the files explicitly.

Example:

grunt.initConfig({
  gitcommit: {
    your_target: {
      options: {
        cwd: "/path/to/repo"
      },
      files: [
        {
          src: ["fileone.txt", "filetwo.js"],
          expand: true,
          cwd: "/path/to/repo"
        }
      ]
    }
  },
})

The "gitadd" task

Add file contents to the index

Options

options.all

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Update the index not only where the working tree has a file matching but also where the index already has an entry. This adds, modifies, and removes index entries to match the working tree.

options.force

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Allow adding otherwise ignored files.

Usage Examples

grunt.initConfig({
  gitadd: {
    task: {
      options: {
        force: true
      },
      files: {
        src: ['test.txt']
      }
    }
  },
});

The "gitcommit" task

Commits the working directory.

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named gitcommit to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  gitcommit: {
    your_target: {
      options: {
        // Target-specific options go here.
      },
      files: {
          // Specify the files you want to commit
      }
    }
  },
})

Each target defines a specific git task that can be run. The different available tasks are listed below.

Options

options.message

Type: String Default value: 'Commit'

The commit message.

options.allowEmpty

Type: Boolean Default value: false

When true, the task will not fail when there are no staged changes (optional).

options.noVerify

Type: Boolean Default value: false

When true, the task will commit the changes with the --no-verify flag.

options.noStatus

Type: Boolean Default value: false

When true, the task will commit the changes with the --no-status flag.

Usage Examples

Commit options:

  • message: Commit message
  • files: Files to commit
  • noVerify: Bypass the pre-commit and commit-msg hooks when committing changes
  • noStatus: Do not include the output of git-status in the commit message
grunt.initConfig({
    gitcommit: {
        task: {
            options: {
                message: 'Testing',
                noVerify: true,
                noStatus: false
            },
            files: {
                src: ['test.txt']
            }

    },
});
