Git Ignore Management System for Multiple Repositories. This is an alternative tool for gibo.

The gibo is an excellent tool for managing the .gitignore file. However, gibo uses github.com/github/gitignore as the default and only repository, and we cannot use our own gitignore boilerplates. Then, we need further configuration apart from gibo if the team wants to use their gitignore repository. Therefore, I created a new tool, gixor, to manage gitignore files for multiple repositories.

The gixor also uses github.com/github/gitignore as the default repository (no need for an explicit git clone). Then, the team wants to use their own gitignore repository, run gixor repository add <GIT_URL> to add the repository.

Note that I formerly created the wrapper of gibo, which lists the entries of the .gitignore file and supports updating the .gitignore file. The gixor is the successor of the gibo-wrapper, and gibo-wrapper is now archived.

Gixor means “GitIgnore indeX ORganizer,” and pronounce it as “jigsaw.”
