Suicide Git

The utterly masochistic approach to revision control.

Introducing Suicide Git, (very obviously) inspired by Suicide Linux. Similar to Suicide Linux (SL), Suicide Git (SG) could also be likened to a "game", albeit one that might cost you your job/colleagues. Frankly, I suggest not using it at all. A very simple (bash) installation guide is below, regardless.

In a nutshell, any git command that exits with a non-zero status will trigger The Bomb [Keymaker voice]. This consists of:

Wiping repo history
Wiping repo contents
Deleting all local and remote branches
Creating a new, blank repo in its place
Adding a readme with the git error (the horror!)
Force pushing the new repo to all previous origins

Installation

git clone http://github.com/mway/suicide.git
chmod +x suicide/install-bash.sh && suicide/install-bash.sh

Usage

The install script copies the SG script to /usr/local/bin/sg and aliases git to it. Best case, it's a transparent wrapper and you won't notice a difference. Anything other than best case (we all have hams for hands sometimes), and you're gonna have a bad time.

$ git           # we get a pass here
$ git status    # fortunately, status is easy!
$ git statsu    # crap!
$ git foo       # foo? more like F@#$!
$ git rebase    # conflicts? ruh roh!
