Displays general help and usage information for the Git Mob CLI. You can optionally provide a command ('setup', 'coauthor', or 'help') to get detailed help for that specific command.

Configures the Git Mob CLI globally for all repositories on your system. This one-time setup installs a global prepare-commit-msg git hook, which automatically appends Co-authored-by trailers to commit messages during mob or pairing sessions. If a repository overrides the core.hooksPath git configuration (e.g., when using Husky), the setupGitMobLocally tool needs to be invoked in addition to this. If Git Mob isn't working as expected, ask the user if they have completed this initial setup.

Sets up the Git Mob CLI for the current repository by installing a local prepare-commit-msg git hook. This hook delegates to the global prepare-commit-msg hook configured by setupGitMob tool. Use this tool only if your repository overrides the core.hooksPath git configuration (e.g., when using Husky). Note: You must run setupGitMob tool at least once before using this tool.

Adds a new team member using their key, name, and email. This member can then be used in a pairing or mobbing sessions as a cauthor. The first name is a good choice for the key.Ask the user if they want mob or pair with this team member.

Deletes a team member by their key. User can only delete a team member they have added previously. If user did not specify a key, show them list of existing team members and ask them to select one.

Lists all team members that have been added to Git Mob. The team members can then be used in pairing / mobbing sessions as coauthors.Each entry is formatted as: <key> <name> <email>.Ask the user which team member(s) they want to pair or mob with.

Sets the active pairing or mob session by specifying the keys of the team members to include as coauthors. If Git Mob is setup, these coauthors will be automatically added as Co-authored-by trailers to the commit's message when making commits during the session.

Clears the active mob or pairing session.

Lists all coauthors currently included in the active mob or pairing session. If Git Mob is setup, these coauthors will be automatically added as Co-authored-by trailers to the commit's message when making commits during the session.

Lists the git Co-authored-by trailers for the coauthors currently included in the active mob or pairing session. If Git Mob is setup, these Co-authored-by trailers will be automatically added to the commit's message when making commits during the session.
