ZSH send plugin

The following zsh plugin enables a really useful git shortcut:

send 'my first commit'

will get translated to

git add (everything in current git repository)
git commit -m 'my first commit'
git pull origin (the current git branch)
git push origin (the current git branch)

That is, by writing send, we are able to add our changes, submit a commit, pull from upstream (by default, the remote origin) and then push upstream. Frequently, developers write out this workflow in full hundreds of times a day, so this is a useful time-saving technique.

Lock

This plugin also provides a lock command for committing specific files:

lock file1.txt file2.txt 'my commit message'

will get translated to

git add file1.txt file2.txt
git commit -m 'my commit message'

Unlike send, which adds everything and pushes, lock gives you precise control over which files to stage and commit. The commit message should be the last argument.
