FakeGit

Welcome to your new gem! In this directory, you'll find the files you need to be able to package up your Ruby library into a gem. Put your Ruby code in the file lib/fake/git. To experiment with that code, run bin/console for an interactive prompt.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'fake-git'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install fake-git

Usage

Create a manual fakegit commit by following these steps:

  1. hash-object

    echo "hello world [or your fancy string to commit]" | fakegit hash-object -w --stdin
    
  2. write-tree

    $ fakegit write-tree
    # output is a sha1 (index) of the tree object
    
  3. update-ref

    $ fakegit update-ref
    
  4. commit-tree

    fakegit <tree object sha to commit> -m "your message"
    
  5. log

    fakegit log
    

Verify your objects by using cat-file

fakegit cat-file -s <OBJECT SHA (INDEX)> # to see the filesize
fakegit cat-file -t <OBJECT SHA (INDEX)> # to see the object type
fakegit cat-file -p <OBJECT SHA (INDEX)> # to see the print the content

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run make install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
