Hello, I want to create a bash script for manipulating local git history. The goal is to modify current branch work (in all commits differing from main branch) and split modifications from a specific folder in a different commit. Imagine a repo : The developer create a new feature branch from main branch git checkout -b new-feature He will modify ./src/mycode.php in commit “c1” Then modify ./src/mycode.php and ./translations/platform-en_devel.xliff in commit “c2” And modify again ./src/mycode.php in commit “c3” I need to get all modifications made in translation folder and commit them on main branch I think of a creating a bash script who will :
Another approach I see is
I have to check github hooks maybe this can help me. Is it possible ? Has anyone seen this type of script that I could build on? |
