Git Contrib Scripts

I have created 2 scripts to help me configure git. Thought others might find this useful.

This first script configures git bash completion.

#!/bin/bash

# README:
#
# This script will install git bash completion
#
cd ~/
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
mv git/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash ~/.git-completion.sh
rm -rf ~/git
echo "export GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE=1" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "export GIT_PS1_SHOWSTASHSTATE=1" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "export GIT_PS1_SHOWUNTRACKEDFILES=1" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "source ~/.git-completion.sh" >> ~/.bashrc

# Add git info to PS1 (append this to your ~/.bashrc file, not commented)
#PS1='\[\033[32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[34m\]\w\[\033[31m\]$(__git_ps1)\[\033[00m\]\$ ' 
zenity --info --text="Add git info to PS1 (append this to your ~/.bashrc file)\n\nPS1='\\\[\\\033[32m\\\]\\\u@\\\h\\\[\\\033[00m\\\]:\\\[\\\033[34m\\\]\\\w\\\[\\\033[31m\\\]\$\(__git_ps1\)\\\[\\\033[00m\\\]\\\\$ ' "

The script clones git, copies the bash completion file to ~/ the deletes the repo. Then adds configuration to the .bashrc file. Finally it pops up a message that lets you copy the PS1 to paste into you .bashrc

This second script does some basic configuration.
It download some git applications: gitk, gitg and git-gui

Sets up git colors and prompts for user.name and user.email

#!/bin/bash

# README:
#
# This script will install gitk, git-gui, gitg, configure git status colors
# and user.name and email
#

sudo apt-get -yq install gitk git-gui gitg

git config --global color.diff auto
git config --global color.status auto
git config --global color.branch auto
git config --global color.status.changed yellow
git config --global color.status.added green
git config --global color.status.untracked red

# Set name and email in gitconfig
GITUSERNAME=`zenity --width=300 --entry --title="Configure git --global user.name" --text="Enter your name:"`
if [ "${GITUSERNAME}" != "" ]; then
  git config --global user.name "$GITUSERNAME"
fi

GITEMAIL=`zenity --width=300 --entry --title="Configure git --global user.email" --text="Enter your email:"`
if [ "${GITEMAIL}" != "" ]; then
  git config --global user.email "$GITEMAIL"
fi

git config --global --list

I can also provide these as patch files if wanted.
