ts-git

This is a compact high-level JavaScript API for git. No git installation is needed. It wraps the low-level js-git API to investigate working copies of repositories stored in the local filesystem, much like the git command line tool is often used.

Features

The main high-level operations are:

• Get info (hash, message, time and author) for any commit (getCommit).
• Get logs with commit info working backwards from any commit (getLog).
  • Optionally filtered to only include commits with changes to a particular file (stopping at renames).
• Check if a particular file in the working tree has changed since the latest commit (isDirty).
