Simple way to initialize a new git repository in an empty directory, add a file and do a first commit (or skip that part in a directory with files). Useful for unit tests and generators.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save gfc

Install with yarn:

$ yarn add gfc

Usage

var firstCommit = require('gfc');

// async
firstCommit(cwd[, options], function(err, stdout, stderr) {
  if (err) {
    console.error('exec error: ' + err);
    return;
  }
  console.log('stdout: ' + stdout);
  console.log('stderr: ' + stderr);
});

// sync
firstCommit.sync(cwd[, options]);

Example

var firstCommit = require('gfc');
var dir = 'foo/bar';

firstCommit(dir, function(err) {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
  } else {
    console.log('done!');
  }
});

(NOTE: Most of the following examples will show async usage, but for the most part, the sync method works the same way without the callback)

What does this do?

By default, this library will:

  1. create a new git repository
  2. add a temp.txt file
  3. git add .
  4. do a first commit with the message "first commit"

You can disable #2, or customize other behavior via options.
