Anvil is a software package assistant, which can be used to initialise package repositories and add files to them based on templates. It also defines new git commands and git hooks.
It is written using the Bourne Shell and M4, and requires GNU Autoconf, BSD Make and BSD Owl to build and install.
The documentation is held in the doc directory of this repository. Here are a few suggested starting points:
- Anvil template — Create new files based on a template
- Anvil revision history – Rewrite Git revision history with specialised filters
- Anvil hooks — Attach hooks to your git repository
- Anvil extra — New git commands
- Anvil Travis CI — Autoinstall script for ocamllers using Travis CI.
We produce a new shell file using the following command:
% anvil_template -p shell anvil_tool.sh 'Another tool in the Anvil suite'
### anvil_tool.sh -- Another tool in the Anvil suite
