// [**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 should
// also check out the generated [API documentation][ap]. We try to link to
// the relevant sections of the API docs in each section in this file.
//
// **libgit2** (for the most part) 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.

// ### Includes
// 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 all the libgit2 API.
#include <git2.h>
#include <stdio.h>
// Almost all libgit2 functions return 0 on success or negative on error.
// This is not production quality error checking, but should be sufficient
// as an example.

// There are a couple of methods for opening a repository, this being the

// and work tree locations, here we assume they are in the normal places.

// Once we've converted the string into the oid value, we can get the raw

// ### Working with the Object Database
// **libgit2** provides [direct access][odb] to the object database. The

// or tag), the size of the raw data and the raw, unparsed data itself.

// to be hugely helpful as a raw object.

// than trying to deal with the raw data yourself.
// #### Commit Parsing
// [Parsing commit objects][pco] is simple and gives you access to all the
