Gitup: Unify CLI

Created on 24 Mar 2016  Â·  5Comments  Â·  Source: git-up/GitUp

When GitUp is started via the command line, its behavior is very unusual.
It should be like this:

  • gitup - Starts GitUp and shows start screen
  • gitup . - Starts GitUp in the current directory
  • gitup ~/projects/some-app - Starts GitUp in the ~/projects/some-app directory
  • gitup -h / gitup --help - Shows usage instructions

But a gitup -h would be good anyway

The CLI is intentionally designed for convenience and smooth integration with GitUp first, and not necessarily follow some of the Unix CLI conventions (which are just conventions since they are no official rules).

There are no plans to change this.

Well, this sucks. … I can't see anything "convenient and smooth" about the current cli

It would easy for you to write a wrapper script so it works the way you want. GitUp and its CLI tool have been available for more than a year now and AFAIK people like it the way it is.

But a gitup -h would be good anyway

bummer abou this, cli use is key
