⚡ GitCoco: A Rust-based CLI for Conventional Commits, making commit standardization effortless and consistent for seamless project versioning and collaboration.

✨ Features

gitcoco gives tools to work with Conventional Commits.

It provides the following commands:

• gitcoco changelog: Create a changelog file.

• gitcoco check: Checks if a range of commits is following the convention.

• gitcoco commit: Helps to make conventional commits.

• gitcoco version: Finds out the current or next version.

🚀 Installation

Make sure that cmake has been installed. If not, you should install cmake:

cmake --version
brew install cmake

To install gitcoco, simply clone the repository and follow the instructions below:

git clone git@github.com:trinhminhtriet/gitcoco.git
cd gitcoco

cargo install --path .

Running the below command will globally install the gitcoco binary.

cargo install gitcoco

Optionally, you can add ~/.cargo/bin to your PATH if it's not already there

echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

💡 Usage

Changelog

A changelog can be generated using the conventional commits. It is inspired by conventional changelog and the configuration file allows changes to the generated the output.

gitcoco changelog > CHANGELOG.md

Check

Check a range of revisions for compliance.

It returns a non zero exit code if some commits are not conventional. This is useful in a pre-push hook.

gitcoco check $remote_sha..$local_sha

Commit

Helps to make conventional commits. A scope, description, body, breaking change and issues will be prompted. Convco will recover the previous message in case git failed to create the commit.

gitcoco commit --feat

gitcoco commit can also be used as git core.editor. In this case gitcoco commit will not invoke git commit, but git will invoke gitcoco commit

e.g.:

GIT_EDITOR='gitcoco commit' git commit -p

When persisting the git editor also set sequence.editor when editing the todo list of an interactive rebase.

Or configure a git alias:

git config --global alias.gitcoco '!GIT_EDITOR="gitcoco commit" git commit'

Version

When no options are given it will return the current version. When --bump is provided, the next version will be printed out. Conventional commits are used to calculate the next major, minor or patch. If needed one can provide --major, --minor or --patch to overrule the convention.

gitcoco version --bump

🗑️ Uninstallation

Running the below command will globally uninstall the gitcoco binary.

cargo uninstall gitcoco

Remove the project repo

rm -rf /path/to/git/clone/gitcoco
