I use Sublime Merge (https://www.sublimemerge.com) for all git commands. For automating commits on things like curated lists / wikis / .. I use gitupdate (https://github.com/nikitavoloboev/gitupdate)

This made me realize I haven't heard about git-flow[0] in ages. There was an era when it seemed like everyone wanted to use that for everything, even when it didn't make any sense.

I used tig for a bit because it was the nicest way I could find to do line-level staging in a terminal. But was really impressed with gitui https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui so I've switched to that
> I separate file backup and version control. I keep every git repository I'm working on in Dropbox, and don't ever worry about how often I'm committing and pushing.
Motivated by a slightly different use case (seamless syncing across multiple machines), I built a custom tool that solves this concern within `git`: https://github.com/rraval/git-nomad
You can toss `git nomad sync` into a systemd timer (or cronjob if you prefer) and forget about it.
By default it shows the commit message doesn't it? At least I'm not aware I've done anything for e.g. https://github.com/OJFord/terraform-provider-wireguard/actio...
The annoyance I'm describing is that when the commit message is 'merge branch master' (and especially if, as the label next to it shows, it is the master branch) this is crap and useless, and hiding the 'real' commits behind it that the committer had locally while behind the remote. If they had `git pull --rebase`d (or `git pull` with the config option set) the commit message would be that of the latest 'real' one.
