CLI

CLI guidelines. Use whenever using the Bash tool, which is almost always. Also use when you see "command not found: __zoxide_z" errors.

CLI Guidelines

Directory Navigation

  • I replaced cd with zoxide. Use command cd to change directories
    • This is the only command that needs to be prefixed with command
    • Don't prefix git with command git
  • Try not to use cd or zoxide at all. It's usually not necessary with CLI commands
    • Don't run cd <dir> && git <subcommand>
    • Prefer git -C <dir> <subcommand>

Flag Names

Prefer long flag names when available:

  • Don't run git commit -m
  • Run git commit --message instead
