Glimpse::Git

Provide a glimpse into the Git info of your Rails application.

Things this glimpse view provides:

  • View the current branch name
  • Compare the diff of the current revision on your GitHub repo

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'glimpse-git'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install glimpse-git

Usage

Add the following to your config/initializers/glimpse.rb:

Glimpse.into Glimpse::Views::Git

You will need to set the GitHub project's name with owner if you plan on comparing the current ref against your default branch on GitHub.

# nwo - name with owner - owner/name
Glimpse.into Glimpse::Views::Git, :nwo => 'dewski/json_builder'

You can also manually set each of the following optional options:

  • SHA
  • Default Branch (master by default)
  • Branch Name
Glimpse.into Glimpse::Views::Git, :sha => '740f6b7b11b8717efaf51ddb98ce23394544f7e0', :default_branch => 'rails4.0', :branch_name => 'integration'
