🚀 Git Automation Script

This script automates various Git operations including backing up changed files, syncing the codebase with a remote repository, and committing and pushing changes to the current branch. It is designed to streamline the development process by handling repetitive tasks efficiently.

Clone or Download

git clone https://github.com/prajyotzankar/Git-Automation-Script.git

Usage

1. Navigate to your local Git repository:

   cd /path/to/your/repository

2. Make the script executable:

   chmod +x path/to/your/back_up_sync_add_commit_push.sh

3. Run the script:

   ./path/to/your/back_up_sync_add_commit_push.sh

Script Workflow

1. Set Destination Folder:

   • Determines the destination folder based on the current branch.
   • Creates the folder if it doesn't exist.

2. Backup Changed Files:

   • Identifies modified and untracked files with the extensions .jsp, .xsd, and .java.
   • Copies these files to the destination folder.

3. Sync Codebase with Remote:

   • Clears any existing stash.
   • Stashes current changes.
   • Switches to the main branch and pulls the latest changes.
   • Switches back to the current branch and rebases it with the main branch.
   • Applies the stashed changes.

4. Add, Commit, and Push Changes:

   • Displays the files to be added.
   • Prompts for confirmation before staging the files.
   • Prompts for a commit message and commits the changes.
   • Pushes the changes to the current branch.

Customization

• Main Branch: The script uses MAIN_BRANCH as the main branch. You can change this by modifying the main_branch variable.
• File Extensions: The script currently backs up files with .jsp, .xsd, and .java extensions. You can add or remove extensions by updating the regular expression in the get_changed_files_and_backup function.

Project Status

The script is functional and can be customized based on specific project requirements.
