gib
- A .gitignore
bootstrapper for projects using git
This is a small utility for those who need to generate .gitignore
files for different languages or frameworks. gib
uses .gitignore
templates, allowing to check and generate these files from them. The templates are collected directly from GitHub's own gitignore repository.
Installation
You can download the binaries for the available platforms at GitHub's releases page
Homebrew (macOS)
brew install davsanchez/gib/gib
Or brew tap davsanchez/gib
and then brew install gib
.
From crates.io
If you have installed Rust on your machine, you can just do:
cargo install gib
Installing from source
You'll also need Rust installed for this one:
git clone https://github.com/DavSanchez/gib.git --recurse-submodules
cd gib
cargo install
Usage
Create .gitignore
at current directory (if it doesn't exist)
gib [<template>...]
If a .gitignore
file already exists at that location, gib
will do nothing.
If you want to extend an existing file instead, use the -a|--append
flag. If you want to overwrite it, use -r|--replace
(append takes precedence over replace).
Create .gitignore
at other directory
gib [<template>...] [-o|--output] [<path>]
Get list of available templates
gib [-l|--list]
Print result of specified templates to stdout
only
gib [<template>...] [-s|--show]
This flag takes precedence over --append
, --replace
and --output
flags.

file for Go and Rust
gib go rust
