67 This module provides Perl scripts easy way to interface the Git version control
68 system. The modules have an easy and well-tested way to call arbitrary Git
69 commands; in the future, the interface will also provide specialized methods
70 for doing easily operations which are not totally trivial to do over
71 the generic command interface.
73 While some commands can be executed outside of any context (e.g. 'version'
74 or 'init'), most operations require a repository context, which in practice
75 means getting an instance of the Git object using the repository() constructor.
76 (In the future, we will also get a new_repository() constructor.) All commands
77 called as methods of the object are then executed in the context of the
80 Part of the "repository state" is also information about path to the attached
81 working copy (unless you work with a bare repository). You can also navigate
82 inside of the working copy using the C<wc_chdir()> method. (Note that
83 the repository object is self-contained and will not change working directory
86 TODO: In the future, we might also do
88 my $remoterepo = $repo->remote_repository (Name => 'cogito', Branch => 'master');
89 $remoterepo ||= Git->remote_repository ('http://git.or.cz/cogito.git/');
90 my @refs = $remoterepo->refs();
92 Currently, the module merely wraps calls to external Git tools. In the future,
93 it will provide a much faster way to interact with Git by linking directly
94 to libgit. This should be completely opaque to the user, though (performance
95 increase notwithstanding).

112 =item repository ( OPTIONS )
114 =item repository ( DIRECTORY )
118 Construct a new repository object.
119 C<OPTIONS> are passed in a hash like fashion, using key and value pairs.
120 Possible options are:
122 B<Repository> - Path to the Git repository.
124 B<WorkingCopy> - Path to the associated working copy; not strictly required
125 as many commands will happily crunch on a bare repository.
127 B<WorkingSubdir> - Subdirectory in the working copy to work inside.
128 Just left undefined if you do not want to limit the scope of operations.
130 B<Directory> - Path to the Git working directory in its usual setup.
131 The C<.git> directory is searched in the directory and all the parent
132 directories; if found, C<WorkingCopy> is set to the directory containing
133 it and C<Repository> to the C<.git> directory itself. If no C<.git>
134 directory was found, the C<Directory> is assumed to be a bare repository,
135 C<Repository> is set to point at it and C<WorkingCopy> is left undefined.
136 If the C<$GIT_DIR> environment variable is set, things behave as expected
139 You should not use both C<Directory> and either of C<Repository> and
140 C<WorkingCopy> - the results of that are undefined.
142 Alternatively, a directory path may be passed as a single scalar argument
143 to the constructor; it is equivalent to setting only the C<Directory> option
146 Calling the constructor with no options whatsoever is equivalent to
147 calling it with C<< Directory => '.' >>. In general, if you are building
148 a standard porcelain command, simply doing C<< Git->repository() >> should
149 do the right thing and setup the object to reflect exactly where the user

235 =item command ( COMMAND [, ARGUMENTS... ] )
237 =item command ( [ COMMAND, ARGUMENTS... ], { Opt => Val ... } )
239 Execute the given Git C<COMMAND> (specify it without the 'git-'
240 prefix), optionally with the specified extra C<ARGUMENTS>.
242 The second more elaborate form can be used if you want to further adjust
243 the command execution. Currently, only one option is supported:
245 B<STDERR> - How to deal with the command's error output. By default (C<undef>)
246 it is delivered to the caller's C<STDERR>. A false value (0 or '') will cause
247 it to be thrown away. If you want to process it, you can get it in a filehandle
248 you specify, but you must be extremely careful; if the error output is not
249 very short and you want to read it in the same process as where you called
250 C<command()>, you are set up for a nice deadlock!
252 The method can be called without any instance or on a specified Git repository
253 (in that case the command will be run in the repository context).
255 In scalar context, it returns all the command output in a single string
258 In array context, it returns an array containing lines printed to the
259 command's stdout (without trailing newlines).
261 In both cases, the command's stdin and stderr are the same as the caller's.

365 Close the C<PIPE> as returned from C<command_*_pipe()>, checking
366 whether the command finished successfully. The optional C<CTX> argument
367 is required if you want to see the command name in the error message,
368 and it is the second value returned by C<command_*_pipe()> when
369 called in array context. The call idiom is:
371 my ($fh, $ctx) = $r->command_output_pipe('status');
372 while (<$fh>) { ... }
373 $r->command_close_pipe($fh, $ctx);
375 Note that you should not rely on whatever actually is in C<CTX>;

389 Execute the given C<COMMAND> in the same way as command_output_pipe()
390 does but return both an input pipe filehandle and an output pipe filehandle.
392 The function will return return C<($pid, $pipe_in, $pipe_out, $ctx)>.

452 =item command_noisy ( COMMAND [, ARGUMENTS... ] )
454 Execute the given C<COMMAND> in the same way as command() does but do not
455 capture the command output - the standard output is not redirected and goes
456 to the standard output of the caller application.
458 While the method is called command_noisy(), you might want to as well use
459 it for the most silent Git commands which you know will never pollute your
460 stdout but you want to avoid the overhead of the pipe setup when calling them.
462 The function returns only after the command has finished running.

568 Retrieve the configuration C<VARIABLE> in the same manner as C<config>
569 does. In scalar context requires the variable to be set only one time
570 (exception is thrown otherwise), in array context returns allows the
571 variable to be set multiple times and returns all the values.

633 is simple decimal number. An optional value suffix of 'k', 'm',
634 or 'g' in the config file will cause the value to be multiplied
635 by 1024, 1048576 (1024^2), or 1073741824 (1024^3) prior to output.

697 This function returns a hashref of refs stored in a given remote repository.
698 The hash is in the format C<refname =\> hash>. For tags, the C<refname> entry
699 contains the tag object while a C<refname^{}> entry gives the tagged objects.
701 C<REPOSITORY> has the same meaning as the appropriate C<git-ls-remote>
702 argument; either an URL or a remote name (if called on a repository instance).
703 C<GROUPS> is an optional arrayref that can contain 'tags' to return all the
704 tags and/or 'heads' to return all the heads. C<REFGLOB> is an optional array
705 of strings containing a shell-like glob to further limit the refs returned in
706 the hash; the meaning is again the same as the appropriate C<git-ls-remote>
709 This function may or may not be called on a repository instance. In the former

748 =item ident ( TYPE | IDENTSTR )
750 =item ident_person ( TYPE | IDENTSTR | IDENTARRAY )
752 This suite of functions retrieves and parses ident information, as stored
753 in the commit and tag objects or produced by C<var GIT_type_IDENT> (thus
754 C<TYPE> can be either I<author> or I<committer>; case is insignificant).
756 The C<ident> method retrieves the ident information from C<git var>
757 and either returns it as a scalar string or as an array with the fields parsed.
758 Alternatively, it can take a prepared ident string (e.g. from the commit
759 object) and just parse it.
761 C<ident_person> returns the person part of the ident - name and email;
762 it can take the same arguments as C<ident> or the array returned by C<ident>.
764 The synopsis is like:
766 my ($name, $email, $time_tz) = ident('author');
767 "$name <$email>" eq ident_person('author');

965 Attempts to retreive the temporary file mapped to the string C<NAME>. If an
966 associated temp file has not been created this session or was closed, it is
967 created, cached, and set for autoflush and binmode.
969 Internally locks the file mapped to C<NAME>. This lock must be released with
970 C<temp_release()> when the temp file is no longer needed. Subsequent attempts
971 to retrieve temporary files mapped to the same C<NAME> while still locked will
972 cause an error. This locking mechanism provides a weak guarantee and is not
973 threadsafe. It does provide some error checking to help prevent temp file refs
974 writing over one another.
976 In general, the L<File::Handle> returned should not be closed by consumers as
977 it defeats the purpose of this caching mechanism. If you need to close the temp
978 file handle, then you should use L<File::Temp> or another temp file faculty

1108 =head1 ERROR HANDLING
1110 All functions are supposed to throw Perl exceptions in case of errors.
1111 See the L<Error> module on how to catch those. Most exceptions are mere
1112 L<Error::Simple> instances.
1114 However, the C<command()>, C<command_oneline()> and C<command_noisy()>
1115 functions suite can throw C<Git::Error::Command> exceptions as well: those are
1116 thrown when the external command returns an error code and contain the error
1117 code as well as access to the captured command's output. The exception class
1118 provides the usual C<stringify> and C<value> (command's exit code) methods and
1119 in addition also a C<cmd_output> method that returns either an array or a
1120 string with the captured command output (depending on the original function
1121 call context; C<command_noisy()> returns C<undef>) and $<cmdline> which
1122 returns the command and its arguments (but without proper quoting).
1124 Note that the C<command_*_pipe()> functions cannot throw this exception since
1125 it has no idea whether the command failed or not. You will only find out
1126 at the time you C<close> the pipe; if you want to have that automated,
1127 use C<command_close_pipe()>, which can throw the exception.

1179 This magical statement will automatically catch any C<Git::Error::Command>
1180 exceptions thrown by C<CODE> and make your program die with C<ERRMSG>
1181 on its lips; the message will have %s substituted for the command line
1182 and %d for the exit status. This statement is useful mostly for producing
1183 more user-friendly error messages.
1185 In case of no exception caught the statement returns C<CODE>'s return value.
