vstatus License Build status

vstatus is a lightning-fast version control status string generator that you can use wherever you want (eg. in your shell prompt: bash, zsh, fish…).

Current Status

vstatus is still under active design and not yet ready for mainstream usage.

Design goals

vstatus aims at the following objectives:

  • be extremely lightweight, self-contained and easy to deploy;
  • be lightning-fast, to avoid slowing down a terminal if used to draw an informative prompt;
  • be extensible enough to support multiple VCS (git, mercurial, subversion, fossil, veracity…)
  • be customizable enough to support arbitrary formatting options.

Compilation

Run cargo build --release in your working copy.

Installation

Copy the vstatus binary wherever you want.
