Git Library for Ruby

A pure ruby implementation of Git

Homepage

Git public hosting of the project source code and project wiki is at:

Gitr

I have included a command line pure-ruby git client called 'gitr'

The following commands are available - they all will run in pure ruby, without forking out the the git binary. In fact, they can be run on a machine without git compiled on it.

Commands currently implemented:

• add
• commit
• log
• log-shas
• cat-file (treeish)
• rev-parse (treeish)
• branches
• ls-tree (tree)

Examples

Here are some of examples of how to use the Git-Ruby package.

First you have to remember to require rubygems if it's not. Then include the 'git-ruby' gem.

require 'rubygems'
require 'git-ruby'

g = GitRuby.open('my_project')  # has a .git subdir

g.add('file')
g.commit('commit message')

g.log.each do |commit|
  puts commit.sha
  puts commit.message
  puts commit.author.email

  commit.gtree.children.each do |name, obj|
    if obj.tree?
      puts ['tree: ' name, obj.sha].join("\t")
    end

    if obj.blob?
      puts ['blob: ' name, obj.sha].join("\t")
    end
  end
end
