Wrap_libgit2 is an Eiffel binding of libgit2 C library using WrapC tool.

libgit2 is a portable, pure C implementation of the Git core methods provided as a re-entrant linkable library with a solid API, allowing you to write native speed custom Git applications in any language which supports C bindings.

• WrapC tool.
• libgit2 v1.0.0.

The binding is work in progress. Tested on Linux and Windows 64 bits.

Guide to linking libgit2 on various platforms

On Linux to install version 1.0.0 you will need to do the following.

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ sudo cmake --build . --target install

Rebuild the ldconfig cache using

sudo ldconfig 

Optionally you can use vckpg, a C++ Library Manager for Windows, Linux, and MacOS.

	./vcpkg install libgit2:x64-linux

Using vcpkg (https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg) tool, you can install libgit2 library

	vcpkg install libgit2:x64-windows

Then copy the git2.lib to %LIBRARY_PATH%wrap_library/library/C/lib Be sure to have the git2.dll on the PATH.

• Git Init shows how to initialize a new repo
• Git Status shows how to use the status APIs
• Git Add shows how to modify the index
• Git Checkout shows how to perform checkouts.
• Git Describe shows how to describe commits.
• Git ls-files shows how to view all files currently in the index.
• Git push shows how to git push <remote> <branch>
• Git ls_remote shows how to list remote references.
• Git clone shows how to list perform clones.

Before to use the examples you will need to compile the C glue code, go to

library/generated_wrapper/c/src

and run

finish_freezing --library

It will copy the C lib eif_libgit2.a to $ECF_CONFIG_PATH/C/spec/$(ISE_PLATFORM)/lib/ or eif_libgit2.lib to $ECF_CONFIG_PATH/C/spec/$ISE_C_COMPILER/$ISE_PLATFORM/lib
