Git Wrapper

A minimal wrapper API for git, useful for getting git information in .NET programs.

Requires the git executable to be on your PATH.

How to use

Instantiate a Git instance with the path to the repository root to run git commands on that repo.

var repo = new Git("/path/to/repo");
Console.WriteLine(repo.Branch());
// Writes ie. 'master'

Commands

• Git.Status - get the full git status output
• Git.HeadRef - get the SHA for the current HEAD. By default, gives the shortened hash, use shortHash=false to get the full hash.
• Git.Branch - get the currently active branch name.
• Git.Exec - run an arbitrary git command, given as a string.
