The `git-info` command is a utility designed to easily extract and display various details about a Git repository. It aims to provide a quick overview of the repository's status, branch information, commit history, and configuration settings. It's particularly useful for scripting and automation where parsing the raw output of individual `git` commands can be cumbersome.

Unlike some other git helper scripts, `git-info` is intended to be relatively self-contained and rely primarily on standard `git` commands. The specific information it displays can often be customized using configuration options or environment variables. A typical use case is to include repository information in build scripts, deployment logs, or application dashboards to help with debugging and tracking.

The command helps you rapidly check the status of your repository.

The availability and exact output of `git-info` can depend on the specific environment and configuration of Git.

Example 1: Display current branch and latest commit:
git info -b -c

Example 2: Check if the repository is dirty:
git info -d
