NAME

Git::Libgit2 - Low-level FFI bindings to libgit2

VERSION

version 0.001

SYNOPSIS

use Git::Libgit2 qw( init_lib version check_rc );

init_lib();
printf "libgit2 %s\n", version();

# Direct FFI calls live in Git::Libgit2::FFI
use Git::Libgit2::FFI;
my $rc = Git::Libgit2::FFI::git_repository_open(\my $repo, '/path/to/.git');
check_rc $rc;

DESCRIPTION

Low-level FFI::Platypus bindings to the libgit2 C library, via Alien::Libgit2.

This module is intentionally close to the C surface. Use Git::Native for an idiomatic Moo wrapper with RAII handle management.

EXPORTS

init_lib, shutdown_lib, version, check_rc, oid_from_hex, oid_to_hex, plus object-type and repository-init constants.

SEE ALSO

Alien::Libgit2, Git::Native, FFI::Platypus, libgit2
