libgit2 bindings for Rust.
[dependencies]
git2 = "0.19.0"
git2-rs works with stable Rust, and typically works with the most recent prior stable release as well.
Currently this library requires libgit2 1.8.1 (or newer patch versions). The
source for libgit2 is included in the libgit2-sys crate so there's no need to
pre-install the libgit2 library, the libgit2-sys crate will figure that and/or
build that for you. On the other hand, if an appropriate version of libgit2
is present, git2
will attempt to dynamically link it.
To be more precise, the vendored libgit2
is linked statically if two
conditions both hold:
- The environment variable
LIBGIT2_NO_VENDOR=1
is not set - and either a) The Cargo feature
vendored-libgit2
is set or b) an appropriate version oflibgit2
cannot be found on the system.
In particular, note that the environment variable overrides the Cargo feature.
$ git clone https://github.com/rust-lang/git2-rs
$ cd git2-rs
$ cargo build
Running tests and handling all of the associated edge cases on every commit
proves tedious very quickly. To automate tests and handle proper stashing and
unstashing of unstaged changes and thus avoid nasty surprises, use the
pre-commit hook found here and place it into the
.git/hooks/
with the name pre-commit
. You may need to add execution
permissions with chmod +x
.
To skip tests on a simple commit or doc-fixes, use git commit --no-verify
.
If the ssh
feature is enabled (and it is by default) then this library depends
on libssh2 which depends on OpenSSL. To get OpenSSL working follow the
openssl
crate's instructions.
