********************************************************************** Quick examples ********************************************************************** A list of some common command-line operations and their pygit2 equivalents. Creating a new repository with ``git init`` >>> pygit2.init_repository('repo_name', False) Viewing a commit with ``git show d370f56`` >>> repo = pygit2.Repository('/path/to/repository') >>> commit = repo['d370f56'] Viewing the last commit message >>> repo[repo.head.oid].message 'commit message' Traversing the commit history with ``git log`` >>> last = repo[repo.head.oid] >>> for commit in repo.walk(last.oid, pygit2.GIT_SORT_TIME): >>> print(commit.message) # or some other operation Listing all branches with ``git branch`` >>> regex = re.compile('^refs/heads/') >>> filter(lambda r: regex.match(r), repo.listall_references()) Similarly, listing all tags with ``git tag`` >>> regex = re.compile('^refs/tags') >>> filter(lambda r: regex.match(r), repo.listall_references()) Listing all files in the last commit >>> for e in repo[repo.head.oid].tree: >>> print(e.name)
