semtex 1.1.2

Semtex

Git presents all textual diffs in the same way. A change that could break your production system looks identical to a safe refactoring. Semtex splits up your diffs into those that affect the runtime behaviour and those that don't.

Quick Start

Make your code reviewer's life easier

Run the following command to split your staged changes in two: one half containing changes that affect runtime behaviour, and another focused on improving code quality.

semtex split

To commit only those changes that effect the runtime behaviour of your application use:

semtex commit Behavioural <commit message>

To commit changes that focus on improving quality, run:

semtex commit Quality <commit message>

Evaluate the Impact of a Commit

Generate a summary that highlights portions of an existing commit that impact runtime behaviour:

semtex check https://github.com/repo.git <commit>

To analyze multiple commits, you can specify a base:

semtex check https://github.com/repo.git <feature-branch> --base master

Additional Commands
