Avalanche Plugin (WIP)

Avalanche is an IntelliJ IDEA plugin that keeps your local branches up to date automatically.

Features

• Periodically fetch and merge updates for selected branches.
• Configurable update interval and conflict handling mode.
• Enable or disable auto update for each branch via the Git branches popup.
• Notifications about successes or failures.

Building from Source

Use Gradle to build the plugin ZIP:

./gradlew buildPlugin

The resulting archive will be located under build/distributions. During development you can run a sandbox IDE using:

./gradlew runIde

Usage

1. Right‑click a branch in the Git branches popup and choose Enable Auto Update.
2. Adjust the interval and conflict handling in Settings | Avalanche.
3. The plugin will periodically update the branch according to your settings.
