Git Town provides additional Git commands that automate the creation, synchronization, shipping, and cleanup of Git branches. Compatible with all popular Git workflows like Git Flow, GitHub Flow, GitLab Flow, and trunk-based development. Supports mono-repos and stacked changes. Check out this screencast for an introduction.
Basic development commands
- hack - create a new up-to-date feature branch off the main branch
- sync - update existing branches, remove shipped branches
- switch - switch between branches via text UI
- propose - create a pull or merge request for a feature branch
Stacked changes
- append - insert a new branch as a child of the current branch
- detach - remove a branch from a stack
- diff-parent - show the changes committed to a feature branch
- merge - merge two adjacent branches in a stack into one
- prepend - insert a new branch between the current branch and its parent
- set-parent - update the parent of a branch
- swap - switch position with the parent branch in a stack
Limit branch syncing
- contribute - add commits to somebody else's feature branch
- observe - track somebody else's feature branch without contributing to it
- park - stop syncing one of your feature branches
- prototype - sync but don't push a branch
Dealing with errors
- continue - resume the last run Git Town command after having resolved conflicts
- skip - resume the last run Git Town command by skipping the current branch
- status - displays or resets the current suspended Git Town command
- undo - undo the most recent Git Town command
Setup and configuration
- config - display or update your Git Town configuration
- config setup - run the visual setup assistant
- offline - start or stop running in offline mode
- completions - auto-completions for bash, zsh, fish, and PowerShell
Advanced development commands
- branch - display the local branch hierarchy
- compress - squash all commits on feature branches down to a single commit
- delete - remove a feature branch
- rename - rename a branch
- repo - view the repository homepage
- ship - merge a completed feature branch and remove it

Overview ¶
Git Town - a high-level CLI for Git
Git Town adds Git commands that make software development more efficient by keeping Git branches better in sync with each other. This reduces merge conflicts and the number of Git commands you need to run.
