# chicken-git
libgit2 bindings for CHICKEN Scheme.
## Install
Obviously, libgit2 is required: .
Assuming you have that, installation should be straightforward:
$ git clone git://bitbucket.org/evhan/chicken-git.git
$ cd chicken-git
$ chicken-install -test
This extension requires libgit2 0.23.0 and Chicken 4.8.0 or newer.
## API
The library is split into two modules, `git` and `libgit2`:
* `libgit2` is essentially just the libgit2 API, thinly wrapped. Most of
the function signatures remain the same, with two exceptions:
* Memory for out parameters and other structures that would typically
go on the stack is allocated automatically.
* Return values are checked where appropriate, signaling an exception of type
`(exn git)` when nonzero.
* `git` is a higher-level interface around `libgit2`, providing
record types for each libgit2 structure.
Documentation is available at .
## Notes
Some functionality is not yet provided, such as custom backends, remotes and
reflog inspection. Obviously, patches are more than welcome.
