# Git Manager Script for Local Repository
#
# This script automates the process of committing and pushing changes in a
# local Git repository. It runs asynchronously every 30 minutes, checks for
# edited files, and waits for files to be closed before committing and pushing.
#
# The commit_and_push_changes function is responsible for committing and
# pushing the changes. It adds all modified files with a commit message
# mentioning "Update [filename]" and all newly created files with a commit
# message mentioning "Add [filename]".
#
# The check_editor_status function checks if any files in the repository are
# open in a text editor. It uses the lsof command to identify open files. The
# script will wait until all files are closed before proceeding.
#
# Please make sure to update ~/Hackathon-Projects/Domatex-Soln with the actual
# path to your local Git repository. Also, ensure that you have the necessary
# permissions and proper Git configuration set up to perform the operations.
#
# To start the script, simply execute it in the terminal. It will run
# asynchronously in the background, continuously checking for edited files and
# waiting for them to be closed before committing and pushing the changes.
#
# Please note that this script relies on the lsof command to check if files are
# open in an editor. Make sure lsof is installed on your system for the script
# to work correctly. Additionally, keep in mind that this script will run
# indefinitely until manually stopped.
