Normally you can just do "make install" to install git-cola
in your $HOME directory ($HOME/bin, $HOME/share, etc).
If you want to do a global install you can do
make prefix=/usr install
You don't need to make to run it, though.
git-cola is designed to run directly out of its source tree.
bin/git-cola
bin/git-dag
Linux is it! Your distro has probably already packaged git-cola. If not, please file a bug against your distribution ;-)
yaourt -S git-cola
apt-get install git-cola
yum install git-cola
emerge git-cola
Use the one-click install link.
Homebrew is the easiest way to install git-cola, Qt4 and PyQt4.
brew install git-cola
Once brew has installed git-cola you can build a git-cola.app
application bundle from source and copy it to /Applications.
make git-cola.app
Download the latest stable Git, Python 2.x, and Py2x-PyQt4 installers
Once these are installed you can run git-cola from the Start menu or
by double-clicking on the git-cola.pyw script.
If you are developing git-cola on Windows you can use python.exe to run
git-cola directly from source.
python.exe bin/git-cola
If you want to build the git-cola Installer yourself run the provided script
contrib/win32/create-installer.sh
You have to make sure that the file
/share/InnoSetup/ISCC.exe
exists. That is normally the case when you run the msysGit bash and not the Git for Windows bash (look here for the differences).
git-cola ships with an interactive rebase editor called git-xbase. git-xbase can be used to reorder and choose commits and can be launched independently of the main git-cola interface, e.g.:
GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=$PWD/share/git-cola/bin/git-xbase git rebase -i master
