pygit2 - libgit2 bindings in Python
=====================================
pygit2 is a set of Python 2.5+ bindings to the libgit2 linkable C Git library.
INSTALLING AND RUNNING
========================
First you need to install the latest version of libgit2.
You can find platform-specific instructions to build the library in the libgit2 website:
<http://libgit2.github.com>
Next, make sure you have the required library dependencies for pygit2: OpenSSL and ZLib.
For instance, in Debian-based systems run:
$ sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev libssl-dev
Also, make sure you have Python 2.5+ installed together with the Python development headers.
When those are installed, you can install pygit2:
$ git clone git://github.com/libgit2/pygit2.git
$ cd pygit2
$ python setup.py install
$ python setup.py test
