git + hub = github
hub is a command line tool that wraps git in order to extend it with extra
features and commands that make working with GitHub easier.
$ hub clone rtomayko/tilt
# expands to:
$ git clone git://github.com/rtomayko/tilt.git
hub is best aliased as git, so you can type $ git <command> in the shell and
get all the usual hub features. See "Aliasing" below.
Installation
Dependencies:
- git 1.7.3 or newer
Homebrew
hub can be installed through Homebrew:
$ brew install hub
$ hub version
git version 1.7.6
hub version 2.2.3
If you want to get access to new hub features earlier and help with its
development by reporting bugs, you can install the prerelease version:
$ brew install --devel hub
Windows (Via Chocolatey)
hub can be installed through Chocolatey on Windows.
> choco install hub
> hub version
git version 2.16.2.1.windows.1
hub version 2.2.9
Windows (Via Scoop)
hub can be installed through Scoop on Windows.
> scoop install hub
> hub version
git version 2.16.2.windows.1
hub version 2.2.9
Fedora Linux
On Fedora you can install hub through DNF:
$ sudo dnf install hub
$ hub version
git version 2.9.3
hub version 2.2.9
Standalone
hub can be easily installed as an executable. Download the latest
compiled binaries and put it anywhere
in your executable path.
Source
To install hub from source:
$ git clone https://github.com/github/hub.git
$ cd hub
$ make install prefix=/usr/local
Prerequisites for compilation are:
make- Go 1.8+
- Ruby 1.9+ with Bundler - for generating man pages
If you don't have make, Ruby, or want to skip man pages (for example, if you
are on Windows), you can build only the hub binary:
$ ./script/build
You can now move bin/hub to somewhere in your PATH.
Finally, if you've done Go development before and your $GOPATH/bin directory
is already in your PATH, this is an alternative installation method that fetches
hub into your GOPATH and builds it automatically:
$ go get github.com/github/hub
Aliasing
Using hub feels best when it's aliased as git. This is not dangerous; your
normal git commands will all work. hub merely adds some sugar.
hub alias displays instructions for the current shell. With the -s flag, it
outputs a script suitable for eval.
You should place this command in your .bash_profile or other startup script:
eval "$(hub alias -s)"
PowerShell
If you're using PowerShell, you can set an alias for hub by placing the
following in your PowerShell profile (usually
~/Documents/WindowsPowerShell/Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1):
Set-Alias git hub
A simple way to do this is to run the following from the PowerShell prompt:
Add-Content $PROFILE "`nSet-Alias git hub"
Note: You'll need to restart your PowerShell console in order for the changes to be picked up.
If your PowerShell profile doesn't exist, you can create it by running the following:
New-Item -Type file -Force $PROFILE
Shell tab-completion
hub repository contains tab-completion scripts for bash, zsh and fish. These scripts complement existing completion scripts that ship with git.
