IGIT - Indexed git for adding/removing git files using file list index not by it\'s name
Author: Krishnadas P.C<pckrishnadas88@gmail.com>
Repo: https://github.com/pckrishnadas88/indexed-git
ut stands for untracked files.
nt stands for notstaged tracked files.
st stands for staged files.
After a command has been executed it shows the updated status.
1. To Simply view the status execute the command without any args.
$ ./igit.sh
Untracked files
ut0 - igit.sh
ut1 - git-status.txt
ut2 - test
2. To add an untracked file(ut) run like this where 0 is the index from the previous command.
$./igit.sh add ut 0
Staged files
st0 - igit.sh
st1 - git-status.txt
Untracked files
ut0 - test
3. To add multiple files using comma seperated method
$./igit.sh add ut 1,2,3 #Here 1, 2, 3 are the index of the files.
4. To add multiple files using a range like 1..10 adds 10 files.
$./igit.sh add ut 1..10

New features, Option to add multiple files with it's index.
To add multiple files using comma separated method

To add multiple files using a range like 1..10 adds 10 files.
