git town propose

git town propose [--title <text>] [--body <text>] [--body-file <-|filename>]

The propose command helps create a new pull request (also known as merge request) for the current feature branch. It opens your code hosting platform's website to create a new proposal in your browser and pre-populates information like branch and source/target repository. It also syncs the branch to merge before opening the pull request.

You can create pull requests for repositories hosted on:

• Bitbucket
• Gitea
• GitHub
• GitLab

--body / -b

When called with the --body aka -b flag, it pre-populates the body of the pull request with the given text.

--body-file / -f

When called with the --body-file aka -f flag, it pre-populates the body of the pull request with the content of the given file. The filename - reads the body text from STDIN.

--detached / -d

The --detached aka -d flag does not pull updates from the main or perennial branch. This allows you to build out your branch stack and decide when to pull in changes from other developers.

--dry-run

Use the --dry-run flag to test-drive this command. It prints the Git commands that would be run but doesn't execute them.

--title / -t

When called with the --title <title> aka -t flag, the propose command pre-populate the title of the pull request to the given text.

--verbose / -v

The --verbose aka -v flag prints all Git commands run under the hood to determine the repository state.

Configuration

You can configure the hosting platform type with the hosting-platform setting.

When using SSH identities, this command uses the hostname in the hosting-origin-hostname setting.
