libgit2 bindings for Rust.
[dependencies]
git2 = "0.18.1"
git2-rs works with stable Rust, and typically works with the most recent prior stable release as well.
Currently this library requires libgit2 1.7.1 (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.
You can enable the Cargo feature vendored-libgit2
to always compile and
statically link to a copy of libgit2. Sometimes the libgit2 on the system is
required to be found and used even when vendored-libgit2
is activated. In
this case, you shall set the environment variable LIBGIT2_NO_VENDOR=1
.
$ 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.
