I want to show this new Python tool I've made for myself and my organization to work get things done with our Git repositories. It's basically an extension to Git, called through the command "gak <command>" that is higher level for doing things like switching branch with a wildcard, going to directories in centralized repositories and building in a generic way. It also has Jira integration, assuming some basic convention for branch names. It's also extendable, allowing you to add new subcommands by simply adding a file in a directory.

It's been really useful to speed up my development process, and so I wish to gather feedback before I publish it officially on PyPi. I'll accept pull request and welcome issues and enhancement suggestions in the Github repo.

Keep hacking!
