libgit2

How do I do a push with libgit2? (Like git push origin master on console) I want to use the C version. Cloning, opening, adding files to index and committing work like a charm (see code ). The test-bare-repository is local. Unfortunately, reference and documentation did not help me. Examples are very rare and mostly outdated ( like this , the git_push_new() function seems to be gone). I'm guessing for some hours now and I think I tried all meaningfull combinations of code snippets from reference and examples . Edit: I fear there is no possibility to do that with libgit2 at all. Can anyone

Since there is no copy-paste example for creating a commit without using files on disk with libgit2 as far as I can tell I thought I should add one. Don't forget that libgit2 is in full development at this time (March 2013) so have a look at official documentation and source code, as new features are added daily: libgit2 API headers are very well commented - here's an example extensive tests may be a source of inspiration there are some official examples , general.c is a good place to start inspiration may be found in LibGit2Sharp - here are some tests bool addGitCommit ( git_repository * repo

i'm trying to use rugged to do something pretty simple: create and commit a file, leaving the repository in the same state as doing: git init echo "blah blah blah" > blah.txt git add blah.txt git commit -m "write blah.txt" which leaves git status printing On branch master nothing to commit, working directory clean i'm using code adapted from the rugged repo's readme , which boils down to: name = "blah.txt" repo = Rugged::Repository.init_at dir File.open File.join(dir, name), 'w' do |f| f.write content end oid = Rugged::Blob.from_workdir repo, name index = repo.index index.add(:path => name,

I got this error when starting up TortoiseGit: Could not get all refs. libgit2 returned: Refspec 'refs/heads/origin/HEAD' not found While annoying, it does not prevent me from using TortoiseGit. However, I'd like to make it go away, because it is, well, annoying . How do I fix this? Updated Answer So it turns out that, for the purpose of updating a local repo's view of which branch <remote>/HEAD points to, you can have git automatically fetch that information from the remote and set it locally for you, instead of having to manually set it with git symbolic-ref like in my old solution above:

I am working with libgit2sharp (a C# wrapper for libgit2) and have been running into issues because it doesnt have a lot of the functionality I am hoping for (hopefully I can contribute to it soon; this seems like a really useful project) The thing I am trying to do right now is get a list of the files changed from a particular commit and its parent. I will not try to figure out what has changed between a merge and its two parents. I am more interested in regular commits. These guys (https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2sharp/issues/89) are working on something similar. I think their procedure is

I am trying to get a list of all object IDs in a git repository, using libgit2. I can't seem to find any method for this. Does libgit2 have a method to get all object IDs (or iterate through them), or do I need to read them manually? What you may be looking for is the revision walking API. Description of the feature can be found here . A test demonstrating different walking strategies may also provide you with some help Edit: A thread in the libgit2 mailing list specifically deals with this. A more precise answer from Vicent Marti (libgit2 maintainer) is ... Just push every single HEAD into
