Git commit bash script

Question

I\'m writing a bash script to add, commit, push all files in a directory.

#!/bin/bash  
git add .  
read -p \"Commit description: \" desc  
git commit -m $de         


        

Answer 1

it is helpful to remove from the index the files that have actually been deleted. git add -u takes care of this. Also, you may want to consider chaining these commands together like this:

git add . && \
git add -u && \
git commit -m "$(read -p 'Commit description: ')" && \
git push origin HEAD

If any command fails, it will stop evaluating the remaining commands.

Just food for thought (untested food).

Thanks!
