GitCli

This project is aimed to create the interfacing to GIT via the Command Line Interface (CLI). This is due to the CLI is always the latest version while library is lacking behind. Furthermore, library for Ruby or Java might not be coming in so soon, being later should be a better in keeping up the changes.

Hence the interfacing with the CLI seems the better way to do that.

This codes are tested using git version 2.25.1, Linux x86_64

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'gvcs'
gem 'git_cli'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install gvcs
$ gem install git_cli

Usage

This gem is intended to be the provider for Gvcs generic API. It is used together with Gvcs.

Example usage:

require 'gvcs'
# require git_cli after gvcs because git_cli will initialize the gvcs classes with appropriate methods
require 'git_cli'

# Loading the provider. 
# in this case is git_cli
vcs = Gvcs::Vcs.new
vcs.init(path) # init workspace at the given path

@ws = Gvcs::Workspace.new(vcs, path)
# @ws now can invoke all supported git operations 

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test 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 bundle exec rake 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.
