gitgo 

========

[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/ChimeraCoder/gitgo?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/ChimeraCoder/gitgo)

Gitgo provides Go functions for interacting with Git repositories.

Unlike libgit2, which is written in C, Gitgo is written in pure Go, and can be compiled and cross-compiled easily for all platforms supported by Go.

Installation

--------------

`

$ go get github.com/ChimeraCoder/gitgo

`

Usage

---------

Full documentation is available on [GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/ChimeraCoder/gitgo).

Gitgo is a library intended to be used by other applications, rather than a replacement for the `git` command-line tools. However, gitgo does provide the `gitgo` binary, which is used for testing the gitgo library functions and demonstrating their functionality:

````

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ChimeraCoder/gitgo

$ gitgo log 1d833eb5b6c5369c0cb7a4a3e20ded237490145f

    First commit. Create .gitignore

Note that the `gitgo` binary does not support all (or even most) of the functions provided by the gitgo library; it is intended for demonstration purposes and testing only.
