Motivation

Git was always complicated to use even for "pro"grammers (pun alert!). Hence we decided to make gut. This made most of our tasks easy and increased speed and efficiency by 15 times.

Features

• Very very small: The gut binary is only 2KB in size. It's like magic!

• It's not even a binary: Gut is purely written in programmer-friendly shell script. You can modify it yourself too and don't have to struggle so much.

• Has only commands you need: Gut comes with just 5 commands because let's face it -- we only use commit and checkout and log. We also removed the add command. See, gut knows you don't need it :)

• Extremely high speed: You can checkout to any commit in a matter of mili-seconds. Why did we ever need those huge linked lists and diffs. You can go anywhere you want instantly, because what you did is always safe with gut.

• No more tiring commit messages (and hashes): Gut doesn't ask you to write those long descriptive commit messages. We know you lose half of your strength writing those. And then the misery of finding all those hashes among your log. Gut asks you to set the id of commit yourself... JUST THE ID.

Installation

Just copy the gut file somewhere in your $PATH. It's that simple!

Usage

Learning gut

1. Create a gut repository by gut init command.

2. Make changes to your worktree.

3. Commit your changes directly by gut commit [id]. See, you don't have to add files to staging area or write a long message. JUST THE ID!

4. To view your commits use the gut log command.

5. To checkout to certain commit use gut checkout [id].

See, you've successfully mastered gut!

Contributions

Well, gut is perfect. We don't think you can improve it any further. Still if you have a brilliant idea, submit a pull request. We'll definitely politely discard it what-so-ever.
