#!/usr/bin/env bash
# git capture-wip - make a wip commit to capture intermediate changes
#
# Author: [@Hefeweizen](https://github.com/Hefeweizen)
#
#
# if current branch is foo, then foo-wip is created.
#
# Do note, a side-effect of this action is to reset the index.
#
# The impetus for this was to capture more ephemeral or in-progress edits. An
# example of this is this addition I made to my .vimrc, that captures a wip
# commit on every file edit:
# ```vim
# autocmd BufWritePost * silent execute ":!if git ls-files --error-unmatch % 1>/dev/null 2>&1; then git wip; fi" | redraw!
# ```


# if env var found, then abort saving wip
#
# This was specifically added to have git not interfere
# with --interactive patching/rebasing.
# ```
# $ g config core.editor
# NO_GIT_WIP=1 vim
# ```
if [[ ${NO_GIT_WIP} -eq 1 ]]; then
    exit
