Struct git_repository::Repository[][src]

pub struct Repository {
    pub refs: Store,
    pub work_tree: Option<PathBuf>,
    // some fields omitted
}
Expand description

A instance with access to everything a git repository entails, best imagined as container for most for system resources required to interact with a git repository which are loaded in once the instance is created.

These resources are meant to be shareable across threads and used by most using an Easy* type has a handle carrying additional in-memory data to accelerate data access or hold volatile data. Depending on context, EasyShared gets the fastest read-only access to the repository, whereas Easy has to go through an Rc and EasyArcExclusive through an Arc<RwLock>.

Namely, this is an object database, a reference database to point to objects.

Fields

refs: Store

A store for references to point at objects

work_tree: Option<PathBuf>

The path to the worktree at which to find checked out files

Implementations

Create a repository with work-tree within directory, creating intermediate directories as needed.

Fails without action if there is already a .git repository inside of directory, but won’t mind if the directory otherwise is non-empty.

The path to the .git directory itself, or equivalent if this is a bare repository.

Return the path to the working directory if this is not a bare repository.
