Git-control NPM

NOTE: git-control is no longer maintained because excellent projects that do the same thing like nodegit exist, and i strongly recommend using them instead.

git-control (beta)

A node module that helps you perform git operations on a repository. To start, all operations are build arround Promises/A promises for asynchronious implementation, but there is a plan to support synchronious commands too.

Getting Started

Install the module with: npm install git-control and then:

var git = require('git-control'),
newRepo =  git.repo({
	path: '../path/to/repo', //default to '.'
	gitDir: '../.git', //default to path + '/.git',
    workTree: 'path/to/work/tree' // default to path
});

newRepo.printInfo(); //output usefull information about the status.

###Available commands

exec, main function that is used by all other commands, execute the given git command, ex: repo.exec('status');
log
status
tag
submodule, (NOTE: exports also submodules, so if you have a submodule called jquery in your main repository myLib, you could access its git-control repository instance using myLib.submodule.jquery)
branch
fetch
checkout
pull
add
commit
printInfo
