# NAME

Git::Wrapper::Plus - A Toolkit for working with Git::Wrapper in an Object Oriented Way.

# VERSION

version 0.004012

# DESCRIPTION

Initially, I started off with `Dist::Zilla::Util::` and friends, but I soon discovered so many quirks
in `git`, especially multiple-version support, and that such a toolkit would be more useful independent.

So `Git::Wrapper::Plus` is a collection of tools for using `Git::Wrapper`, aiming to work on all versions of Git since at least
Git `1.3`.

For instance, you probably don't realize this, but on older `git`'s,

echo > file
git add file
git commit
echo 2 > file
git add file
git commit

does nothing, because on Git 1.3, `git add` is only for the addition to tree, not subsequent updates.

echo > file
git add file
git commit
echo 2 > file
git update-index file
git commit

Is how it works there.

And you'd have probably not realized this till you had a few smoke reports back with failures on old Gits.

And there's more common failures, like some commands simply don't exist on old gits.

# MODULES

## `Git::Wrapper::Plus::Refs`

[`Git::Wrapper::Plus::Refs`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Git::Wrapper::Plus::Refs) is a low level interface to refs.

Other modules build on specific types of refs, but this one is generic.

## `Git::Wrapper::Plus::Branches`

[`Git::Wrapper::Plus::Branches`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Git::Wrapper::Plus::Branches) is a general purpose interface to branches.

This builds upon `::Refs`

## `Git::Wrapper::Plus::Tags`

[`Git::Wrapper::Plus::Tags`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Git::Wrapper::Plus::Tags) is a general purpose interface to tags.

This builds upon `::Refs`

## `Git::Wrapper::Plus::Versions`

[`Git::Wrapper::Plus::Versions`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Git::Wrapper::Plus::Versions) is a simple interface for comparing git versions.

## `Git::Wrapper::Plus::Support`

[`Git::Wrapper::Plus::Support`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Git::Wrapper::Plus::Support) uses the `::Versions` interface and combines it with a table
of known good version ranges to provide a basic summary of supported features on different git versions.

# COMMON INTERFACE

You don't have to use this interface, and its probably more convenient
to use one of the other classes contained in this distribution.

However, this top level object is usable if you want an easier way to use many
of the contained tools without having to pass `Git::Wrapper` instances everywhere.

use Git::Wrapper::Plus;

my $plus = Git::Wrapper::Plus->new('.');
$plus->refs # Git::Wrapper::Plus::Refs
$plus->branches # Git::Wrapper::Plus::Branches
$plus->tags # Git::Wrapper::Plus::Tags
$plus->versions # Git::Wrapper::Plus::Versions
$plus->support # Git::Wrapper::Plus::Support

# METHODS

## `BUILDARGS`

Construction takes 4 Forms:

->new( $string ) # Shorthand for ->new( { git => Git::Wrapper->new( $string ) } );
->new( blessed ) # Shorthand for ->new( { git => blessed } );
->new( @list ) # Shorthand for ->new( { @list } );
->new( { key => value } ); # Final form.

# ATTRIBUTES

## `git`

## `refs`

## `tags`

## `branches`

## `versions`

## `support`
