The code and the general structure of the program are primarily based on the following blog post:
Please note that this project was created primarily to familiarize me with the C++ language. Therefore, the code may not conform to normal C++ style, and there are undoubtedly many places where the code can be optimized.
To build this project, follow the commands below:
cmake --preset=default
cmake --build buildThe program supports the following subcommands:
| Subcommands | Description |
|---|---|
| init | Initialize a cgit repository |
| commit | Store the directory as a snapshot |
| log | Print log history |
| tag | Attach tag to a commit |
| branch | Create a new branch |
| checkout | Move HEAD pointer |
| reset | Reset HEAD pointer |
Use -h option to check usage.
cgit -hTo make it more useful, some new features are needed:
- add Stage/Index, and distinguish Working Tree, Stage/Index and Repository
- subcommand status
- subcommand diff
- subcommand merge
Since this is only a project I started for fun and to learn C++, it is unlikely that any of these features will be implemented anytime soon. If you'd like to build on top of my current code, feel free to do so.
