Git Bonsai is a TUI tool to help you tend the branches of your git garden.
Run git bonsai in a git repository checkout.
Git Bonsai lists your branches and their state compared to their remote counterparts.
The Sync command fetches remote changes then iterates on all your local tracking branches and update them to their remote counterparts if they can be fast-forwarded.
The Delete command lets you delete branches. It is smart enough not to ask you to confirm before deletion if the branch is safe to delete. A branch is considered to be safe to delete if it is contained in another local branch, or in its remote tracking one.
The Checkout command lets you change your current branch.
The easiest way to install is to download an archive from the release page, unpack it and copy the git-bonsai binary in a directory in $PATH.
Snapshots from the master branch are available from builds.agateau.com/git-bonsai.
Git Bonsai is written in Rust. To build it, install Rust and then run:
cargo install git-bonsai
You can get a log file of what happens using the --log PATH option.
