cvi going distributed

cvi was published in an earlier post: version control for important files

Going distributed instead of local can be tricky, because somebody else may have changed the file in the master repo.. but here is a cruel attempt..

#!/bin/sh

if [ -z "$1" ] ; then
  echo edit a file stored in a git repo
  echo usage = $0 filename
  exit 1
fi

git pull origin master || exit $?
vi $1
git add $1
git commit
git push
