gt: Create a new commit and fix upstack branches.
$ gt commit create -m ${commit_message}
try on your machine

The given command "gt commit create -m ${commit_message}" is used to create a new commit in a version control system that utilizes the "gt" command line tool.

Let's break down the command:

  • gt: It is the command or executable to interact with the version control system. It might be the specific command for a particular version control system like Git or could be a custom command for a proprietary version control system.

  • commit: It is a subcommand that is used to create a new commit. A commit represents a snapshot of changes made to the files in the repository.

  • create: It is another subcommand under the commit command. It specifies that a new commit is being created.

  • -m ${commit_message}: It is an option that allows you to provide a commit message for the newly created commit. The -m flag stands for "message" and ${commit_message} is a placeholder for the actual commit message you want to provide. You would replace ${commit_message} with your own descriptive message enclosed in quotes.

So, when you run this command, it will create a new commit in the version control system with the commit message you provide. The specific behavior of the command might vary depending on the version control system and the configuration of your environment.
