My git template folder

• pip
• virtualenv

> git clone https://github.com/Rory-Finnegan/git-template
> cd git-template
> ./INSTALL

The INSTALL script will:

1. build a virtualenv in the root git-template directory called venv
2. install the requirements.txt into that virtualenv
3. write the full path of the venv/bin/python (to be exported) to template/hooks/settings.sh
4. sets init.template and clone.template to the template folder.

The template folder provided will only be used for new git repos.

This hook will try and set the local user.name and user.email (if not already set) using the repo remotes and the url patterns per multi-user in your global gitconfig.

Setting a multi-user in your ~/.gitconfig:

[multi-user "github-personal"]
    name = Rory-Finnegan
    email = rory.finnegan@gmail.com
    url = (https://|git@)github.com(/|:)Rory-Finnegan/*

The above entry will allow for automatic setting of the local user.name and user.email to the values provided for all git remote urls that match the regex provided.

NOTE: you can also create that entry with:

> git config --global --add multi-user.github-personal.name Rory-Finnegan
> git config --global --add multi-user.github-personal.email rory.finnegan@gmail.com
> git config --global --add multi-user.github-personal.url="(https://|git@)github.com(/|:)Rory-Finnegan/*"
