task-git.sh

task-git.sh is a wrapper around Taskwarrior's task that places the task database in version control, and generates commits each time the task database is altered.

Usage

Navigate to your Taskwarrior data directory (usually in ~/.task) and type git init. If you plan to push to a remote, go ahead and add your remote now. Don't forget the following command: git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/<branche> master.
Add symlink to task-git.sh as /usr/bin/task-git

ln -s /path/to/task-git/task-git.sh /usr/bin/task-git
Run chmod +x /path/to/task-git/task-git.sh.
Use task-git instead of task when you want the Taskwarrior database files to be automatically committed to version control after each operation.
Edit /etc/bash_completion.d/task to add this line to the end of the file so task-git will -complete the same as task

complete -o nospace -F _task task-git

For zsh, just put this following line before your alias list:

autoload -U compinit compinit compdef _task task-git

It is recommended to use the Taskwarrior database only on one machine, as you will be resolving conflicts if using the same task database on multiple machines.

In the case where the repository is already present, symply clone it in the ~/.task folder that should not exist locally.
