git-fast-import

A library for generating git fast-import streams.

This crate provides a simple, type-safe API for creating git commits programmatically by generating a stream that can be piped to git fast-import.

Example

use git_fast_import::{GitFastImporter, GITHUB_BOT_AUTHOR};
use std::process::{Command, Stdio};

fn main() {
    let mut child = Command::new("git")
        .args(["fast-import", "--quiet"])
        .stdin(Stdio::piped())
        .spawn()
        .expect("failed to spawn git fast-import");

    let stdin = child.stdin.take().unwrap();
    let mut importer = GitFastImporter::new(
        stdin,
        "main".to_string(),
        None,
        GITHUB_BOT_AUTHOR.to_string(),
    );

    let mut commit = importer.start_commit("Initial commit", chrono::Utc::now());
    commit.add_file("src/lib.rs", b"// new file").unwrap();
    commit.finish().unwrap();
    importer.finish().unwrap();

    let status = child.wait().expect("failed to wait on git fast-import");
    assert!(status.success());   
}
