Download zips of github repositories easily.

Build Status Coverage Status

Clone the repository and cd to it. Then do:

$ python setup.py install

The point of gitdl is to quickly get something from GitHub.

$ gitdl bootstrap

This will search for bootstrap, and find the best match and download the zip for it.

$ gitdl -e nvbn/thefuck

When gitdl is passed with -e it expects a {author}/{repo} format to download the exact repo from GitHub.

$ gitdl search "intermediate python"

This will search GitHub and present the results in a tabular format.

To run the tests:

$ py.test

To run the tests with coverage:

$ py.test --cov
