Simple utility functions for fetching git history using libgit2
npm install libgit2-log-utilsSimple utility functions for fetching git history using nodegit (libgit2).
#### This is probably not the library you're looking for...
This is the base package for atom-libgit2-log-utils and node-libgit2-log-utils.
Atom instatiates it's own nodegit package and does not like it when you require another instance of nodegit.
See instead:
- atom-libgit2-log-utils for use in Atom.
- node-libgit2-log-utils for use in Nodejs.
npm install libgit2-log-utils``javascript
var nodegit = require('nodegit');
var GitLogUtils = require('../src/libgit2-log-utils');
var gitLogUtils = new GitLogUtils(nodegit);
gitLogUtils.getCommitHistory("myPath/maybeMyFile")
.then(function(history) {
return console.log(JSON.stringify(history, null, 2));
})
.catch(function(error) {
return console.error(error);
});
