existing one.

Functions
===================================
.. autofunction:: pygit2.init_repository
Example::
>>> from pygit2 import init_repository
>>> repo = init_repository('test') # Creates a non-bare repository
>>> repo = init_repository('test', bare=True) # Creates a bare repository
.. autofunction:: pygit2.clone_repository
Example::
>>> from pygit2 import clone_repository
>>> repo_url = 'git://github.com/libgit2/pygit2.git'
>>> repo_path = '/path/to/create/repository'
>>> repo = clone_repository(repo_url, repo_path) # Clones a non-bare repository
>>> repo = clone_repository(repo_url, repo_path, bare=True) # Clones a bare repository
.. autofunction:: pygit2.discover_repository
Example::
>>> current_working_directory = os.getcwd()
>>> repository_path = discover_repository(current_working_directory)
>>> repo = Repository(repository_path)
The Repository class
===================================
.. py:class:: pygit2.Repository(path)
The Repository constructor only takes one argument, the path of the
repository to open.
Example::
>>> from pygit2 import Repository
>>> repo = Repository('pygit2/.git')
The API of the Repository class is quite large. Since this documentation is
orgaized by features, the related bits are explained in the related chapters,
for instance the :py:meth:`pygit2.Repository.checkout` method are explained in
the Checkout section.

.. autoattribute:: pygit2.Repository.path
.. autoattribute:: pygit2.Repository.workdir
.. autoattribute:: pygit2.Repository.is_bare
