rung

init

Initialize rung in the current Git repository. This creates the .git/rung/ directory to store stack state.

Usage

Terminal window
rung init

What It Does

Running rung init creates:

.git/rung/
├── stack.json      # Branch relationships and PR numbers
├── config.json     # Repository-specific settings
└── backups/        # Sync backup data for undo

Example

Terminal window
$ cd my-project
$ rung init
✓ Initialized rung in /path/to/my-project

If rung is already initialized:

Terminal window
$ rung init
ℹ rung is already initialized

Notes

  • Run this once per repository, before using any other rung commands
  • The .git/rung/ directory is local and not committed to git
  • All stack state travels with your .git directory
  • create — Create your first branch after initialization
  • status — View the current stack
