gitpatcher
A rust library that uses git to maintain a set of patch files against a submodule.
WARNING: Latest version v0.1.2 is currently broken due to libgit2 changes, please use v0.1.1 instead.
Features
- Uses libgit2 internally
- The patcher creates a single patch file per commit
- It automatically adds patch files to the parent repository
- Internally filters out redundant changes in patches, to avoid committing unnecessary changes
