Installation

For Users (Global)

The most reliable way to install is to clone the repository first:

git clone https://github.com/glorindel/GloriGit.git
cd GloriGit
npm install -g .

Alternatively, you can try installing directly via URL (though this can sometimes fail due to npm/git configurations):

npm install -g https://github.com/glorindel/GloriGit.git

Note

npm install -g glorigit will only work once the package is published to the public npm registry.

For Developers (Local Development)

If you've cloned the repository and want to run it globally while testing changes:

# Inside the GloriGit repository folder
npm link

Usage

Simply run glorigit inside any git repository:

cd your-project-folder
glorigit

Or specify a path directly:

glorigit /path/to/repo

Options

• --help: Show usage information
• --version: Show current version
