Comment on Announcing gitsh: A dedicated shell for git commandsparent

Comments

it actually looked nice imho before i realized it's one helluva slow ruby app(sorry, i like ruby, and considering i'm on a haswell laptop, i think i deserve to have my shell commands execute instantly).

unlike the hub command by github(doing different things) the gem dependencies/parsley are not trivial to combine into a single standalone version, so if i chose to use this i would have to install this weird structure of a ruby gem that is distributed as some kind of app that installs itself into usr/lib(most probably because rubygems would make the startup time even slower).

apparently there's also this https://github.com/rtomayko/git-sh which is just bash. but yeah i think i'll just stick with my aliases and tig.

EDIT: i don't know how i saw a /usr/bin/ruby shebang, but forget that part of the rant
