sbt-git-plugin

The sbt-git-plugin offers git command line features directly inside of SBT as well as allowing other plugins to make use of git.

Installation

Add the following to your project/plugins.sbt or ~/.sbt/plugins/plugins.sbt file:

resolvers += Resolver.url("scalasbt", new URL("http://scalasbt.artifactoryonline.com/scalasbt/sbt-plugin-releases"))(Resolver.ivyStylePatterns)

resolvers += "jgit-repo" at "http://download.eclipse.org/jgit/maven"

addSbtPlugin("com.jsuereth" % "sbt-git-plugin" % "0.4")

Using JGit

If you do not have git installed and available on your path (e.g. you use windows), make sure your git.sbt or ~/.sbt/git.sbt file looks like this:

useJGit

Or you can type this into the prompt:

> set useJGit
[info] Reapplying settings...
[info] Set current project to scala-arm (in build file:...)
> session save
[info] Reapplying settings...
[info] Set current project to scala-arm (in build file:...)

This will enabled a java-only GIT solution that, while not supporting all the same commands that can be run in the standard git command line, is good enough for most git activities.

Usage

In an sbt prompt, simply enter any git command. e.g.

> git status
# On branch master
# Changes not staged for commit:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
#	modified:   build.sbt
#	modified:   project/plugins/project/Build.scala
#
# Untracked files:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
#	src/site/
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
