SIA — Simple Git Assistant

A lightweight developer tool that simplifies common Git workflows by combining multiple Git commands into simple instructions.

Instead of remembering and typing several Git commands, you can execute a single command and SIA handles the rest automatically.

---

Why SIA?

Working with Git can be confusing, especially for beginners. Many workflows require multiple commands executed in the correct order.

SIA simplifies this process by allowing developers to run simple instructions that automate common Git operations.

Example:

Instead of typing:

1. git init
2. git add .
3. git commit -m "Initial commit"
4. git branch main
5. git push -u origin main

You can simply run:

init myproject

SIA automatically executes the required steps.
