libgit2 bindings for Rust
```toml
[dependencies]
git2 = "0.7"
```
## Version of libgit2
Currently this library requires libgit2 0.25.1. The source for libgit2 is
included in the libgit2-sys crate so there's no need to pre-install the libgit2
library, the libgit2-sys crate will figure that and/or build that for you.
## Building git2-rs
```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/alexcrichton/git2-rs
$ cd git2-rs
$ cargo build
```
### Automating Testing
Running tests and handling all of the associated edge cases on every commit
proves tedious very quickly. To automate tests and handle proper stashing and
unstashing of unstaged changes and thus avoid nasty surprises, use the
pre-commit hook found [here][pre-commit-hook] and place it into the
`.git/hooks/` with the name `pre-commit`. You may need to add execution
permissions with `chmod +x`.
To skip tests on a simple commit or doc-fixes, use `git commit --no-verify`.
## Building on OSX 10.10+
If the `ssh` feature is enabled (and it is by default) then this library depends
on libssh2 which depends on OpenSSL. To get OpenSSL working follow the
[`openssl` crate's instructions](https://github.com/sfackler/rust-openssl#macos).
