🧠 A command-line utility for switching git branches more easily. Switch branches interactively or use a fuzzy search to find that long-forgotten branch name.

git-smart-checkout's Issues

Add more git smart features

This is a nice tool. I wonder what you'd think about extending it to include more git features? The top one I can think of right now would be git-smart-delete:

• Populate the same initial list of branches as git-smart-checkout
• Instead of a fuzzy matcher, I think you'd want something like prefix matching to be able to delete multiple branches at once, or the option to choose different matchers
• Confirm which branches are being deleted; maybe warn for ones that aren't merged yet or don't delete those by default

I know you can just do `git branch --merged | grep -Ev "^*|main|master" | xargs git branch -d", but the more helpful UI of smart-checkout would make me feel better about cleaning up my branches, so I think this could be a good addition.

The documentation on Crate. io is not the same as that on Github

According to the documentation on Crate. IO, I tried to install the CREATE today, but it showed --> could not find smart-checkout in registry crates-io with version *

steps:

1. First : cargo install smart-checkout

error: could not find `smart-checkout` in registry `crates-io` with version `*`

2. then: cargo search smart-checkout

smart-checkout = "0.0.0"        # A better way of switching git branches.
git-smart-checkout = "0.1.0"    # A better way of switching git branches.

3. so: The installation command should be cargo install git-smart-checkout , rather than cargo install smart-checkout

In fact, the Github documentation says cargo install Git-smart-checkout should be used.

Crate.io is not consistent with github.
