How many times a day did you do this
git add .
git commit -m "commit msg"
git push origin branchName
It's my ritual every time I want to push change on remote git repository. As a developer, we always need to find a way how to make our life easier by using our main principle "Don't Repeat Yourself"
Create a deploy script
Learn how to create a simple deploy script, to automate your code deployment when using git or any other things in command. Create a file name "deploy.sh"
Then move our commands there
git add .
git commit -m "commit msg"
git push origin branchName
Now, every time we want to push a message, in command line just type
./depoy.sh
Make our deploy message dynamic
With instruction before, we'll always have the same commit message. We need to accept an argument, to make it dynamic. At our deploy.sh file
git add .
msg="update site `date`"
if [ $# -eq 1 ]
then msg="$1"
fi
git commit -m "$msg"
git push origin master
We create a $msg variable with current date as default value. But if we want to commit with specific message, now we can just do this
./depoy.sh "our script works!"
Can not execute deploy.sh file?
If you encounter a problem, where you can't execete this deploy.sh file, make sure you have the right permission to execute. In my case, I just normally do
chmod +x deploy.sh
