Brouwer][2]. + +It will show the branch-name, or the commit hash if in detached head state. + +It will also show the number of commits behind, commits ahead, staged files, +unmerged files (conflicts), changed files, untracked files and stashed files +if that number is greater than zero. + +![screenshot][4] + +Glossary +-------- +- ``: branch name or commit hash +- `★`: most recent tag (if enabled) +- `↓`: n commits behind +- `↑`: n commits ahead +- `●`: n staged files +- `✖`: n unmerged files (conflicts) +- `✚`: n changed files +- `…`: n untracked files +- `⚑`: n stashed files + +Requirements +------------ + +The Gitstatus segment requires [git][5]! Preferably, but not limited to, version 1.8.5 or higher. + +Version 1.8.5 will enable the usage of the `-C` parameter, which is more performant and accurate. + +Installation +------------ + +### On Debian/Ubuntu + +On a recent enough Debian (at least Stretch with backports enabled) or Ubuntu (at least 18.10) there is an official package available. + +```txt +apt install powerline-gitstatus +``` + +This command will also instruct your package manager to install Powerline, if it's not already available. + +Powerline will be automatically configured to use the Gitstatus highlight groups and add the segment to the default +shell theme. + +### Using pip + +```txt +pip install powerline-gitstatus +``` + +Configuration +------------- + +The Gitstatus segment uses a couple of custom highlight groups. You'll need to define those groups in your colorscheme, +for example in `.config/powerline/colorschemes/default.json`: + +```json +{ + "groups": { + "gitstatus": { "fg": "gray8", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_branch": { "fg": "gray8", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_branch_clean": { "fg": "green", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_branch_dirty": { "fg": "gray8", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_branch_detached": { "fg": "mediumpurple", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_tag": { "fg": "darkcyan", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_behind": { "fg": "gray10", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_ahead": { "fg": "gray10", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_staged": { "fg": "green", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_unmerged": { "fg": "brightred", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_changed": { "fg": "mediumorange", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_untracked": { "fg": "brightestorange", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus_stashed": { "fg": "darkblue", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] }, + "gitstatus:divider": { "fg": "gray8", "bg": "gray2", "attrs": [] } + } +} +``` + +Then you can activate the Gitstatus segment by adding it to your segment configuration, +for example in `.config/powerline/themes/shell/default.json`: + +```json +{ + "function": "powerline_gitstatus.gitstatus", + "priority": 40 +} +``` + +The Gitstatus segment will use the `-C` argument by default, but this requires git 1.8.5 or higher. + +If you cannot meet that requirement, you'll have to disable the usage of `-C`. +Do this by passing `false` to the `use_dash_c` argument, for example in `.config/powerline/themes/shell/__main__.json`: + +```json +"gitstatus": { + "args": { + "use_dash_c": false + } +} +``` + +Optionally, a tag description for the current branch may be displayed using the `show_tag` option. Valid values for this +argument are: + + * `last` : shows the most recent tag + * `annotated` : shows the most recent annotated tag + * `contains` : shows the closest tag that comes after the current commit + * `exact` : shows a tag only if it matches the current commit + +You can enable this by passing one of these to the `show_tag` argument, for example in `.config/powerline/themes/shell/__main__.json`: + +```json +"gitstatus": { + "args": { + "show_tag": "exact" + } +} +``` +Git is executed an additional time to find this tag, so it is disabled by default. + +Note: before v1.3.0, the behavior when the value is `True` was `last`. As of v1.3.0 onwards, `True` behaves as `exact`. + +Optionally the format in which Gitstatus shows information can be customized. +This allows to use a different symbol or remove a fragment if desired. You can +customize string formats for _branch_, _tag_, _behind_, _ahead_, _staged_, _unmerged_, +_changed_, _untracked_ and _stash_ fragments with the following arguments in a +theme configuration file, for example `.config/powerline/themes/shell/__main__.json`: + +```json +"gitstatus": { + "args": { + "formats": { + "branch": "\ue0a0 {}", + "tag": " ★ {}", + "behind": " ↓ {}", + "ahead": " ↑ {}", + "staged": " ● {}", + "unmerged": " ✖ {}", + "changed": " ✚ {}", + "untracked": " … {}", + "stashed": " ⚑ {}" + } + } +} +``` + +By default, when in detached head state (current revision is not a branch tip), Gitstatus shows a short commit hash in +place of the branch name. This can be replaced with a description of the closest reachable ref using the +`detached_head_style` argument, for example in `.config/powerline/themes/shell/__main__.json`: + +```json +"gitstatus": { + "args": { + "detached_head_style": "ref" + } +} +``` + +By default, if your local branch has untracked files but no other changes, the branch status will be highlighted as dirty in the segment. You can disable this behavior by setting the `untracked_not_dirty` argument to `true`, for example in `.config/powerline/themes/shell/__main__.json`: + +```json +"gitstatus": { + "args": { + "untracked_not_dirty": true + } +} +``` + +License +------- + +Licensed under [the MIT License][3]. + +[1]: https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/master/ +[2]: https://github.com/jaspernbrouwer +[3]: https://github.com/jaspernbrouwer/powerline-gitstatus/blob/master/LICENSE +[4]: https://github.com/jaspernbrouwer/powerline-gitstatus/blob/master/screenshot.png +[5]: https://git-scm.com/ -- cgit v1.2.3
