gimoji

Build Status

./screencast

A CLI tool that makes it easy to add emojis to your git commit messages. It's very similar to (and is based on) gitmoji-cli but written in Rust.

Installation

Fedora (>= 37)

sudo dnf install gimoji

Other OSes

cargo install -f gimoji

Usage

gimoji is primarily intended to be used as a git prepare-commit-msg hook. Once installed, ask gimoji to install the hook in your repository:

cd /path/to/your/project/
gimoji --init

Now, whenever you run git commit, gimoji will kick in and prompt you to choose an emoji.

If you launch gimoji directly without any arguments, it will prompt you to choose an emoji and then copy your choice to the system clipboard.

Use --help to see all the available options.

Rationale

gitmoji-cli while being a great tool, can be considerably slow. Hence this project. gimoji has a few differences:

The philosophy here is to enable you to quickly and easily choose an emoji and get out of your way.
