Xgit continues to make progress. Currently working through the git fundamentals (lately: commit objects and references): https://xgit.io/reference-implementation/

This is great! I started something similar, because I wanted to clone and monitor repositories. I quickly realized that the scope was way to big for the MVP/prototype I was building. So I put it off into the future.
This makes me want to pick up where I left off. If I do pick it up I’ll definitely want to help out on this!

i see that this project has been abandoned but I believe that it’s very important to have a a native implementation of git in the elixir space. If you can provide any resources on implementing git, i’d pick up this project.

Why? Beside making some software that heavily uses git functionality, what is the actual usage?
If you want to invest the time and effort, I would suggest to take it one step further and create a new spec that will fix all the shortcomings of the current git, namely things like rebasing that are actual implementation limitations that a end-user should not care about.

that’s the exact usage i am trying to implement. i’m creating a piece of software that heavily relies on git functionality and other tools and i believe it’ll be cleaner to use a native library. Right now I’m contemplating on just calling the git commands directly using System.cmd but overtime i’d like to have a cleaner and more straight forward solution implemented.
