Shell Setup

git-loom completes commands and their flags in PowerShell, Clink, Bash, Zsh and Fish. Short aliases such as ci or up are not offered, and options passed to git after -- are not completed.

PowerShell

Add to your profile (echo $PROFILE shows where it is):

Invoke-Expression (&git loom completions powershell | Out-String)

loom completes too, so Set-Alias loom git-loom works wherever you put it. Any other alias for git-loom completes only when it is defined before that line.

Clink

Clink adds completion to cmd.exe. Create %LocalAppData%\clink\git-loom.lua with:

load(io.popen('git loom completions clink'):read("*a"))()

To complete your own doskey macros, list them in loom_commands before the load line (default "loom"):

loom_commands = "loom l"

Bash

Add to ~/.bashrc:

eval "$(git loom completions bash)"

git loom <Tab> completes too when git’s own bash completion is loaded.

Bash does not complete through aliases, so loom is completed by name. To complete your own aliases, list them in LOOM_COMMANDS before the eval line (default "loom"):

LOOM_COMMANDS="loom gl"

Zsh

Add to ~/.zshrc, after compinit:

eval "$(git loom completions zsh)"

git loom <Tab> completes too, through zsh’s git completion. An alias for git-loom completes like it; a function needs compdef _git-loom <name>.

Fish

Add to ~/.config/fish/config.fish:

git loom completions fish | source

git loom <Tab> completes too, through fish’s git completion. An alias for git-loom completes like it; a function needs --wraps git-loom.
