Inspired by the post Every line of code is always documented, I upgraded my development environment with a few new tools:
- GitCommitMsg plug-in for Sublime Text - provides easy access to the entire commit history for selected lines.
- The
pr_for_shacommand below (stored in my ~/.bash_profile) - If you employ github flow, this command pops open the github page for the pull request where a given commit originated:
export GITHUB_UPSTREAM=artsy
function pr_for_sha {
git log --merges --ancestry-path --oneline $1..master | grep 'pull request' | tail -n1 | awk '{print $5}' | cut -c2- | xargs -I % open https://github.com/$GITHUB_UPSTREAM/${PWD##*/}/pull/%
}
Just update GITHUB_UPSTREAM to match whatever you call your upstream repo (e.g., upstream or origin).
And if you’re not already using them, you should of course install these Sublime Text plug-ins (via Package Control):
