+// [**libgit2**][lg] is a portable, pure C implementation of the Git core methods
+// provided as a re-entrant linkable library with a solid API, allowing you
+// to write native speed custom Git applications in any language which 
+// supports C bindings. 
+//
+// This file is an example of using that API in a real, compilable C file.
+// As the API is updated, this file will be updated to demonstrate the
+// new functionality.
+//
+// If you're trying to write something in C using [libgit2][lg], you will also want
+// to check out the generated [API documentation][ap] and the [Usage Guide][ug]. We've
+// tried to link to the relevant sections of the API docs in each section in this file.
+//
+// **libgit2** only implements the core plumbing functions, not really the higher
+// level porcelain stuff. For a primer on Git Internals that you will need to know
+// to work with Git at this level, check out [Chapter 9][pg] of the Pro Git book.
+//
+// [lg]: http://libgit2.github.com
+// [ap]: http://libgit2.github.com/libgit2

+

+
+// Including the `git2.h` header will include all the other libgit2 headers that you need.
+// It should be the only thing you need to include in order to compile properly and get

+  // we are assuming they are in the normal places.
+  //

+  // ### SHA-1 Value Conversions
+
+  // For our first example, we will convert a 40 character hex value to the 20 byte raw SHA1 value.
+  printf("*Hex to Raw*\n");
+  char hex[] = "fd6e612585290339ea8bf39c692a7ff6a29cb7c3";

+
+  // Once we've converted the string into the oid value, we can get the raw value of the SHA.

+
+  // If you have a oid, you can easily get the hex value of the SHA as well.
+  git_oid_fmt(out, &oid);
+  printf("SHA hex string: %s\n", out);
+
+  // ### Working with the Object Database
+  // **libgit2** provides [direct access][odb] to the object database.
+  // The object database is where the actual objects are stored in Git. For 
+  // working with raw objects, we'll need to get this structure from the 
+  // repository.

+  // the raw bytes unparsed.
+  error = git_odb_read(&obj, odb, &oid);
+
+  // A raw object only has three properties - the type (commit, blob, tree or tag), the size
+  // of the raw data and the raw, unparsed data itself.  For a commit or tag, that raw data
+  // is human readable plain ASCII text. For a blob it is just file contents, so it could be
+  // text or binary data. For a tree it is a special binary format, so it's unlikely to be
+  // hugely helpful as a raw object.
+  data = (const unsigned char *)git_odb_object_data(obj);

+
+  // For proper memory management, close the object when you are done with it or it will leak
+  // memory.
+  git_odb_object_close(obj);
+
+  // #### Raw Object Writing
+
+  printf("\n*Raw Object Write*\n");
+
+  // You can also write raw object data to Git. This is pretty cool because it gives you
+  // direct access to the key/value properties of Git.  Here we'll write a new blob object
+  // that just contains a simple string.  Notice that we have to specify the object type as
+  // the `git_otype` enum.
+  git_odb_write(&oid, odb, "test data", sizeof("test data") - 1, GIT_OBJ_BLOB);

+  // object was written to our database.
+  git_oid_fmt(out, &oid);
+  printf("Written Object: %s\n", out);
+
+  // ### Object Parsing
+  // libgit2 has methods to parse every object type in Git so you don't have to work directly
+  // with the raw data. This is much faster and simpler than trying to deal with the raw data
+  // yourself.
+
+  // #### Commit Parsing
+  // [Parsing commit objects][pco] is simple and gives you access to all the data in the commit 
+  // - the // author (name, email, datetime), committer (same), tree, message, encoding and parent(s).
+  // [pco]: http://libgit2.github.com/libgit2/#HEAD/group/commit

-  // #### Tree Parsing
-  // [Tree parsing][tp] is a bit different than the other objects, in that we have a subtype which is the
-  // tree entry.  This is not an actual object type in Git, but a useful structure for parsing and
-  // traversing tree entries.

-  // #### Blob Parsing
-  //
-  // The last object type is the simplest and requires the least parsing help. Blobs are just file
-  // contents and can contain anything, there is no structure to it. The main advantage to using the
-  // [simple blob api][ba] is that when you're creating blobs you don't have to calculate the size 
-  // of the content.  There is also a helper for reading a file from disk and writing it to the db and
-  // getting the oid back so you don't have to do all those steps yourself.

-  // Note that this buffer may not be contain ASCII data for certain blobs (e.g. binary files):
-  // do not consider the buffer a NULL-terminated string, and use the `git_blob_rawsize` attribute to
-  // find out its exact size in bytes
-  printf("Blob Size: %d\n", git_blob_rawsize(blob)); // 8
-  git_blob_rawcontent(blob); // "content"
-
-  // ### Revwalking
-  //
-  // The libgit2 [revision walking api][rw] provides methods to traverse the directed graph created
-  // by the parent pointers of the commit objects.  Since all commits point back to the commit that
-  // came directly before them, you can walk this parentage as a graph and find all the commits that
-  // were ancestors of (reachable from) a given starting point.  This can allow you to create `git log`
-  // type functionality.
-  //

-  // one or more starting points onto the walker.  If you want to emulate the output of `git log` you
-  // would push the SHA of the commit that HEAD points to into the walker and then start traversing them.
-  // You can also 'hide' commits that you want to stop at or not see any of their ancestors.  So if you
-  // want to emulate `git log branch1..branch2`, you would push the oid of `branch2` and hide the oid
-  // of `branch1`.

-
-  // Now that we have the starting point pushed onto the walker, we can start asking for ancestors. It
-  // will return them in the sorting order we asked for as commit oids.
-  // We can then lookup and parse the commited pointed at by the returned OID;
-  // note that this operation is specially fast since the raw contents of the commit object will
-  // be cached in memory
