Git Constants

📦 @simbo/git-constants

A small collection of Git-related constants that can be reused across Node.js and TypeScript projects.

Useful for working with Git references, branches, tags, and commit identifiers in a consistent way.

Features

• Predefined constants for common Git concepts

• Covers .git folder name, reference prefixes (refs/, refs/heads/, refs/remotes/, refs/tags/, refs/pulls/), and /merge suffix

• Default branch name (main)

• Short SHA length (7) for commit references

• Fully typed with TypeScript

• Zero dependencies

Installation

Install @simbo/git-constants from the npm registry:

npm i [-D] @simbo/git-constants

Usage

For a complete API reference, see the documentation.

import {
  GIT_DEFAULT_BRANCH,
  GIT_FOLDER,
  GIT_REFS_PREFIX,
  GIT_REFS_HEADS_PREFIX,
  GIT_SHA_SHORT_LENGTH,
} from '@simbo/git-constants';

console.log(GIT_DEFAULT_BRANCH); // "main"
console.log(GIT_FOLDER); // ".git"
console.log(GIT_REFS_PREFIX); // "refs/"
console.log(GIT_REFS_HEADS_PREFIX); // "refs/heads/"
console.log(GIT_SHA_SHORT_LENGTH); // 7
