Documentation/config/guitool.txt

   1 guitool.<name>.cmd::
   2         Specifies the shell command line to execute when the corresponding item
   3         of the linkgit:git-gui[1] `Tools` menu is invoked. This option is
   4         mandatory for every tool. The command is executed from the root of
   5         the working directory, and in the environment it receives the name of
   6         the tool as `GIT_GUITOOL`, the name of the currently selected file as
   7         'FILENAME', and the name of the current branch as 'CUR_BRANCH' (if
   8         the head is detached, 'CUR_BRANCH' is empty).
   9
  10 guitool.<name>.needsFile::
  11         Run the tool only if a diff is selected in the GUI. It guarantees
  12         that 'FILENAME' is not empty.
  13
  14 guitool.<name>.noConsole::
  15         Run the command silently, without creating a window to display its
  16         output.
  17
  18 guitool.<name>.noRescan::
  19         Don't rescan the working directory for changes after the tool
  20         finishes execution.
  21
  22 guitool.<name>.confirm::
  23         Show a confirmation dialog before actually running the tool.
  24
  25 guitool.<name>.argPrompt::
  26         Request a string argument from the user, and pass it to the tool
  27         through the `ARGS` environment variable. Since requesting an
  28         argument implies confirmation, the 'confirm' option has no effect
  29         if this is enabled. If the option is set to 'true', 'yes', or '1',
  30         the dialog uses a built-in generic prompt; otherwise the exact
  31         value of the variable is used.
  32
  33 guitool.<name>.revPrompt::
  34         Request a single valid revision from the user, and set the
  35         `REVISION` environment variable. In other aspects this option
  36         is similar to 'argPrompt', and can be used together with it.
  37
  38 guitool.<name>.revUnmerged::
  39         Show only unmerged branches in the 'revPrompt' subdialog.
  40         This is useful for tools similar to merge or rebase, but not
  41         for things like checkout or reset.
  42
  43 guitool.<name>.title::
  44         Specifies the title to use for the prompt dialog. The default
  45         is the tool name.
  46
  47 guitool.<name>.prompt::
  48         Specifies the general prompt string to display at the top of
  49         the dialog, before subsections for 'argPrompt' and 'revPrompt'.
  50         The default value includes the actual command.
