Git time machine is provided by git-timemachine. Git last commit message per line is provided by git-messenger. 3.1 Magit

Spacemacs uses magit to manage Git repositories.

To open a status buffer, type in a buffer of a Git repository: SPC g s

Spacemacs uses evil-magit for key bindings in magit buffers (unless your editing style is set to emacs, in which case you get the default magit bindings), which are the standard magit key bindings with some minimal changes to make them comfortable for evil users.

Here are the often used bindings inside a status buffer:

Key Binding Description / evil-search $ open command output buffer c c open a commit message buffer b b checkout a branch b c create a branch f f fetch changes F (r) u pull tracked branch and rebase gr refresh j goto next magit section C-j next visual line k goto previous magit section C-k previous visual line l l open log buffer n next search occurrence N previous search occurrence o revert item at point P u push to tracked branch P m push to matching branch (e.g., upstream/develop to origin/develop) q quit s on a file or hunk in a diff: stage the file or hunk x discard changes

  • on a hunk: increase hunk size
  • on a hunk: decrease hunk size S stage all TAB on a file: expand/collapse diff u on a staged file: unstage U unstage all staged files v or V select multiple lines z z stash changes 3.2 Staging lines

Magit allows you to stage specific lines by selecting them in a diff and hitting s to stage. Due to inconsistencies between Vim and Emacs editing styles, if you enter visual line state with V, you will stage one more line than intended. To work around this, you can use v instead (since Magit only stages whole lines, in any case).

3.3 Commit message editing buffer

In a commit message buffer press ,c (if dotspacemacs-major-mode-leader-key is ,) or C-c C-c to commit the changes with the entered message. Pressing ,a or C-c C-k will discard the commit message.

Key Binding Description h go left j go down k go up l go right 3.4 Interactive rebase buffer

Key Binding Description c or p pick e edit f fixup j go down gj move line down k go up gk move line up d or x kill line r reword s squash u undo y insert ! execute 3.5 Quick guide for recurring use cases in Magit

Amend a commit: l l to open log buffer c a on the commit you want to amend ,c or C-c C-c to submit the changes Squash last commit: l l to open log buffer r e on the second to last commit, it opens the rebase buffer j to put point on last commit s to squash it ,c or C-c C-c to continue to the commit message buffer ,c or C-c C-c again when you have finished to edit the commit message Force push a squashed commit: in the status buffer you should see the new commit unpushed and the old commit unpulled P -f P for force a push (beware usually it is not recommended to rewrite the history of a public repository, but if you are sure that you are the only one to work on a repository it is ok - i.e. in your fork). Add upstream remote (the parent repository you have forked): M to open the remote popup a to add a remote, type the name (i.e. upstream) and the URL Pull changes from upstream (the parent repository you have forked) and push: F -r C-u F and choose upstream or the name you gave to it P P to push the commit to origin 3.6 Git-Flow

magit-gitflow provides git-flow commands in its own magit menu.

Key Binding Description % open magit-gitflow menu 3.7 Git time machine

git-timemachine allows to quickly browse the commits of the current buffer.

Key Binding Description SPC g t start git timemachine and initiate micro-state c show current commit n show next commit N show previous commit p show previous commit q leave micro-state and git timemachine Y copy current commit hash
