Why We Need It
-
-
-
-
In the current Git project, though a libgit.a file is produced it is
- not re-entrant (it will call die() on basically any error)
- and it has no stable or well-designed public API. As there is no good
- way to link to this effectively, a new library was needed that fulfilled
- these requirements. Thus libgit2.
-
-
Though it would be nice to use the same library that Git itself uses,
- Git actually has a pretty simple storage format and just having native
- access to that is pretty useful. Eventually we would like to have most
- of the functionality of the core Git tools or even get the library
- integrated into Git itself, but in the meantime having a cleanly designed
- and maintained linkable Git library with a public API will likely be helpful
- to lots of people.
-
-
-
-
-
What It Can Do
-
-
-
- libgit2 is already very usable.
-
- - raw <-> hex SHA conversions
- - raw object reading (loose and packed)
- - raw object writing (loose)
- - revlist walker
- - commit, tag and tree object parsing and write-back
- - tree traversal
- - basic index file (staging area) operations
-

How To Install It
-
-
-
- Currently it has to be compiled by hand, but it shouldn't be too difficult.
-
-
-
$ git clone git://github.com/libgit2/libgit2.git
-$ cd libgit2
-$ make
-$ make install
-
-
-
- Once that is done, you should be able to link the library to your program
- with a normal -lgit2.

-
Language Bindings
-
-
-
-
- There are already a number of language bindings in the works, so you can
- use Git at native speed from your favorite programming language.
-
-
-
-
-
-
Rugged (Ruby bindings)
-
- Rugged (previously known as Ribbit) is the reference bindings for libgit2, used to make sure the
- source C API is sane and functional. They are always in sync with the libgit2 master branch.

pygit2 (Python bindings)
-
pygit2 are the Python 2.6+ bindings for libgit2 mantained by David Borowitz.
- They should be (mostly) up to date with the library changes.

- Geef is an example of an Erlang NIF binding to libgit2. A bit out of
- date, but can be made to mostly work.

+
+ libgit2 is a portable, pure C implementation of the Git core methods provided as a
+ re-entrant linkable library with a solid API, allowing you to write native
+ speed custom Git applications in any language which supports C bindings.
+
+
+
+
+
Getting started
+
+
+
In the current Git project, though a libgit.a file is produced it is
+ not re-entrant (it will call die() on basically any error)
+ and it has no stable or well-designed public API. As there is no good
+ way to link to this effectively, a new library was needed that fulfilled
+ these requirements. Thus libgit2.
+
+
libgit2 is...
+
+ - faster than any other Git library
+ - written in standards compilant C99
+ - completely multi-platform: Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, xBSD
+ - compiled natively under all platforms (yes, even MSVC on Windows)
+ - re-entrant, with sane error handling
+ - designed with a solid and consistent API
+ - available as bindings for all major scripting languages
+ - compiled with minimal external dependencies (currently only zlib)
+ - licensed under the GPLv2 with a linking exception, so you can use it everywhere
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
What it can do
+
+
+ libgit2 is already very usable:
+
+ - SHA conversions and formatting
+ - object reading (loose and packed)
+ - object writing (loose)
+ - revision walking
+ - commit, tag, tree and blob parsing and write-back
+ - tree traversal
+ - index file (staging area) manipulation
+ - ...and much more
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Building the library
+
+
+ libgit2 uses
waf as its buildsystem,
+ and hence requires
Python 2.4 or better to
+ configure the build. The library can be built under the following platforms:
+
Linux,
Mac OS X,
xBSD,
Windows (MSVC) and
Windows (MinGW).
+
+
+
+
Start by configuring the build system by running:
+
$ ./waf configure
+
Then build the library, either in its shared or static form
+
$ ./waf build-static
+$ ./waf build-shared
+
You can then test the library with:
+
$ ./waf test
+
And finally you can install it with (you may need to sudo):
+
$ ./waf install
+
+ Once that is done, you should be able to link the library to your program
+ with a normal -lgit2.
+
+
+
+ Detailed build instructions for different platforms can be found in libgit2's
+
readme file.
+

+

+
+
+ There are already a number of language bindings in the works, so you can
+ use Git at native speed from your favorite programming language.
