module Git

Open a bare repository

Opens a bare repository located in the ‘git_dir` directory. Since there is no working copy, you can not checkout or commit but you can do most read operations.

@see git-scm.com/docs/gitglossary#Documentation/gitglossary.txt-aiddefbarerepositoryabarerepository

What is a bare repository?

@example Open a bare repository and retrieve the first commit SHA

repository = Git.bare('ruby-git.git')
puts repository.log[0].sha #=> "64c6fa011d3287bab9158049c85f3e85718854a0"

@param [Pathname] git_dir The path to the bare repository directory

containing an initialized Git repository. If a relative path is given, it
is converted to an absolute path using
[File.expand_path](https://www.rubydoc.info/stdlib/core/File.expand_path).

@param [Hash] options The options for this command (see list of valid

options below)

@option options [Logger] :log A logger to use for Git operations. Git commands

are logged at the `:info` level.  Additional logging is done at the `:debug`
level.

@return [Git::Base] an object that can execute git commands in the context

of the bare repository.

# File lib/git.rb, line 96
def self.bare(git_dir, options = {})
  Base.bare(git_dir, options)
end

Clone a repository into an empty or newly created directory

@see git-scm.com/docs/git-clone git clone @see git-scm.com/docs/git-clone#_git_urls_a_id_urls_a GIT URLs

@param repository_url [URI, Pathname] The (possibly remote) repository url to clone

from. See [GIT URLS](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-clone#_git_urls_a_id_urls_a)
for more information.

@param directory [Pathname, nil] The directory to clone into

If `directory` is a relative directory it is relative to the `path` option if
given. If `path` is not given, `directory` is relative to the current working
directory.

If `nil`, `directory` will be set to the basename of the last component of
the path from the `repository_url`. For example, for the URL:
`https://github.com/org/repo.git`, `directory` will be set to `repo`.

If the last component of the path is `.git`, the next-to-last component of
the path is used. For example, for the URL `/Users/me/foo/.git`, `directory`
will be set to `foo`.

@param [Hash] options The options for this command (see list of valid

options below)

@option options [Boolean] :bare Make a bare Git repository. See

[what is a bare repository?](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitglossary#Documentation/gitglossary.txt-aiddefbarerepositoryabarerepository).

@option options [String] :branch The name of a branch or tag to checkout

instead of the default branch.

@option options [Integer] :depth Create a shallow clone with a history

truncated to the specified number of commits.

@option options [Logger] :log A logger to use for Git operations. Git

commands are logged at the `:info` level.  Additional logging is done
at the `:debug` level.

@option options [Boolean] :mirror Set up a mirror of the source repository.

@option options [String] :origin Use the value instead ‘origin` to track

the upstream repository.

@option options [Pathname] :path The directory to clone into. May be used

as an alternative to the `directory` parameter.  If specified, the
`path` option is used instead of the `directory` parameter.

@option options [Boolean] :recursive After the clone is created, initialize

all submodules within, using their default settings.

@example Clone into the default directory ‘ruby-git`

git = Git.clone('https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git.git')

@example Clone and then checkout the ‘development` branch

git = Git.clone('https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git.git', branch: 'development')

@example Clone into a different directory ‘my-ruby-git`

git = Git.clone('https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git.git', 'my-ruby-git')
# or:
git = Git.clone('https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git.git', path: 'my-ruby-git')

@example Create a bare repository in the directory ‘ruby-git.git`

git = Git.clone('https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git.git', bare: true)

@return [Git::Base] an object that can execute git commands in the context

of the cloned local working copy or cloned repository.

# File lib/git.rb, line 168
def self.clone(repository_url, directory = nil, options = {})
  clone_to_options = options.select { |key, _value| %i[bare mirror].include?(key) }
  directory ||= Git::URL.clone_to(repository_url, **clone_to_options)
  Base.clone(repository_url, directory, options)
end

Export the current HEAD (or a branch, if options[:branch] is specified) into the name directory, then remove all traces of git from the directory.

See clone for options. Does not obey the :remote option, since the .git info will be deleted anyway; always uses the default remote, ‘origin.’

# File lib/git.rb, line 181
def self.export(repository, name, options = {})
  options.delete(:remote)
  repo = clone(repository, name, {:depth => 1}.merge(options))
  repo.checkout("origin/#{options[:branch]}") if options[:branch]
  Dir.chdir(repo.dir.to_s) { FileUtils.rm_r '.git' }
end

Same as g.config, but forces it to be at the global level

g.config(‘user.name’, ‘Scott Chacon’) # sets value g.config(‘user.email’, ‘email@email.com’) # sets value g.config(‘user.name’) # returns ‘Scott Chacon’ g.config # returns whole config hash

# File lib/git.rb, line 194
def self.global_config(name = nil, value = nil)
  lib = Git::Lib.new(nil, nil)
  if(name && value)
    # set value
    lib.global_config_set(name, value)
  elsif (name)
    # return value
    lib.global_config_get(name)
  else
    # return hash
    lib.global_config_list
  end
end

Create an empty Git repository or reinitialize an existing Git repository

@param [Pathname] directory If the ‘:bare` option is NOT given or is not

`true`, the repository will be created in `"#{directory}/.git"`.
Otherwise, the repository is created in `"#{directory}"`.

All directories along the path to `directory` are created if they do not exist.

A relative path is referenced from the current working directory of the process
and converted to an absolute path using
[File.expand_path](https://www.rubydoc.info/stdlib/core/File.expand_path).

@param [Hash] options The options for this command (see list of valid

options below)

@option options [Boolean] :bare Instead of creating a repository at

`"#{directory}/.git"`, create a bare repository at `"#{directory}"`.
See [what is a bare repository?](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitglossary#Documentation/gitglossary.txt-aiddefbarerepositoryabarerepository).

@option options [String] :initial_branch Use the specified name for the

initial branch in the newly created repository.

@option options [Pathname] :repository the path to put the newly initialized

Git repository. The default for non-bare repository is `"#{directory}/.git"`.

A relative path is referenced from the current working directory of the process
and converted to an absolute path using
[File.expand_path](https://www.rubydoc.info/stdlib/core/File.expand_path).

@option options [Logger] :log A logger to use for Git operations. Git

commands are logged at the `:info` level.  Additional logging is done
at the `:debug` level.

@return [Git::Base] an object that can execute git commands in the context

of the newly initialized repository

@example Initialize a repository in the current directory

git = Git.init

@example Initialize a repository in some other directory

git = Git.init '~/code/ruby-git'

@example Initialize a bare repository

git = Git.init '~/code/ruby-git.git', bare: true

@example Initialize a repository in a non-default location (outside of the working copy)

git = Git.init '~/code/ruby-git', repository: '~/code/ruby-git.git'

@see git-scm.com/docs/git-init git init

# File lib/git.rb, line 258
def self.init(directory = '.', options = {})
  Base.init(directory, options)
end

returns a Hash containing information about the references of the target repository

options

:refs

@param [String|NilClass] location the target repository location or nil for ‘.’ @return [{String=>Hash}] the available references of the target repo.

# File lib/git.rb, line 270
def self.ls_remote(location = nil, options = {})
  Git::Lib.new.ls_remote(location, options)
end

Open a an existing Git working directory

Git.open will most likely be the most common way to create a git reference, referring to an existing working directory.

If not provided in the options, the library will assume the repository and index are in the default places (‘.git/`, `.git/index`).

@example Open the Git working directory in the current directory

git = Git.open

@example Open a Git working directory in some other directory

git = Git.open('~/Projects/ruby-git')

@example Use a logger to see what is going on

logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
git = Git.open('~/Projects/ruby-git', log: logger)

@example Open a working copy whose repository is in a non-standard directory

git = Git.open('~/Projects/ruby-git', repository: '~/Project/ruby-git.git')

@param [Pathname] working_dir the path to the working directory to use

for git commands.

A relative path is referenced from the current working directory of the process
and converted to an absolute path using
[File.expand_path](https://www.rubydoc.info/stdlib/core/File.expand_path).

@param [Hash] options The options for this command (see list of valid

options below)

@option options [Pathname] :repository used to specify a non-standard path to

the repository directory.  The default is `"#{working_dir}/.git"`.

@option options [Pathname] :index used to specify a non-standard path to an

index file.  The default is `"#{working_dir}/.git/index"`

@option options [Logger] :log A logger to use for Git operations. Git

commands are logged at the `:info` level.  Additional logging is done
at the `:debug` level.

@return [Git::Base] an object that can execute git commands in the context

of the opened working copy

# File lib/git.rb, line 318
def self.open(working_dir, options = {})
  Base.open(working_dir, options)
end

g.config(‘user.name’, ‘Scott Chacon’) # sets value g.config(‘user.email’, ‘email@email.com’) # sets value g.config(‘user.name’) # returns ‘Scott Chacon’ g.config # returns whole config hash

# File lib/git.rb, line 42
def config(name = nil, value = nil)
  lib = Git::Lib.new
  if(name && value)
    # set value
    lib.config_set(name, value)
  elsif (name)
    # return value
    lib.config_get(name)
  else
    # return hash
    lib.config_list
  end
