git-utils - Various git related utilities
Git Utils is a collection of simple utilities that made my Git life easier in some way or another. I tried to clean them up as much as necessary prior to putting here, so it should be easy to use for others as well.
Installation
You don’t need anything special, just a working installation of Git and a UNIX system (tested
with Mac OS X and Linux). To install the git-utils into /usr/local run
$ sudo make installor just pick the scripts that you need and place them wherever you want.
Description
git-copy
Copy file from source path to target path and add the target path to the Git index.
