Using rugged how do you perform the following operations: fetch, pull and rebase?
I am using the development branch and after reviewing its documentation found here as a guide to the Remote class.
EDIT: Since git pull is just a shorthand for git fetch and git merge FETCH_HEAD the better question is how to perform git fetch, git merge and git rebase.
git fetch:
remote = Rugged::Remote.lookup(repo, "origin")
remote.connect(:fetch) do |r|
r.download
r.update_tips!
end
git merge:
merge_index = repo.merge_commits(
Rugged::Branches.lookup(repo, "master").tip,
Rugged::Branches.lookup(repo, "origin/master").tip
)
raise "Conflict detected!" if merge_index.conflicts?
merge_commit = Rugged::Commit.create(repo, {
parents: [
Rugged::Branches.lookup(repo, "master").tip,
Rugged::Branches.lookup(repo, "origin/master").tip
],
tree: merge_index.write_tree(repo),
message: 'Merged `origin/master` into `master`',
author: { name: "User", email: "[email protected]" },
committer: { name: "User", email: "[email protected]" },
update_ref: 'master'
})
git rebase:
Rebasing was not implemented yet in libgit2, and thus is not available in Rugged.
In general, your use case sounds very high level, while the rugged API is currently a bit more focused on low-level git repository access and modification. Eventually, we'll also have many higher-level helpers (like a more simple/correct pull) in the future, but we're not there yet.
