Synopsis:¶ ↑
-
For leela and fry to pair:
-
hitch leela fry
-
To override group email:
-
hitch leela fry -g dev@hashrocket.com
-
To clear pair info:
-
hitch -u
-
For a complete list of features:
-
hitch -h
-
Creating a Gravatar for your pair:
-
Once I've hitched with my pair. (e.g. hitch leela fry) I have now created a unique email: dev+fry+leela@hashrocket.com
-
Then, I go to gravatar.com. Add an image to that particular email address and I'm done.
Install:¶ ↑
-
gem install hitch
-
chruby users run this: <pre>
for x in $(chruby | cut -c 3- | awk '{print $1}'); do chruby $x && gem install hitch; done
</pre> -
rvm users run this: <pre>
for x in $(rvm list strings); do rvm use $x@global && gem install hitch; done
</pre> -
rbenv users run this: <pre>
for x in $(rbenv versions | cut -c 3- | awk '{print $1}'); do rbenv shell $x && gem install hitch; done
</pre> -
hitch –setup >> ~/.bashrc
-
this prints out the necessary shell function and aliases you need to add to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
-
Or copy/paste the code into your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
-
As another option, copy/symlink the script to a separate file (e.g.
~/.bash/hitch.sh
or/etc/profile.d/hitch.sh
) and source it. You can get the path usinghitch --setup-path
.
Development:¶ ↑
-
It's easier if you use rvm.
-
Fork hitch
-
When you cd into the directory the .rvmrc will activate and create a hitch gemset
-
Add tests and code for your feature
-
Create a pull request
-
Double-check TravisCI to make sure all tests pass
