Git clone with limited commands, without remote and worktrees.
I will not make use of any library for the core logic as long as I can help it (except the stdlib of course)
I will however, use DB clients, migration tools...etc I have no interest in implementing those myself.
So far, there's only one library I used for something that could be considered as core logic is go-runewidth.
Because well, I'm really not interested in doing width calculations (at least more than I'm already doing) for non-UTF-8 chars and stuff.
You can check out the dependencies from here beware that some of those are my installed libraries' dependencies
Current accomplished tasks:
- Initialize a repository, save the current snapshot of each file in the current directory
- Ability to ignore files/directories by name
- Commit changes as you go, and hold only actionable diffs to be able to rebuild an old versions if need be
- Commit only the changes that're on top of the latest commits. Don't commit a whole diff of current file and cached text
- See the diffs for files with appropriate colors and accounting for deletions and additions on top of the latest commit
- Revert command with the ability to go back X versions
- Log command to see the commit history
- Somewhat decent argument parsing and making use of flags for commands when needed
Diff view with fixed widths and coloring:
There is not much else to show visually.
Remaining tasks that I envisioned for this project are:
Change the file snapshop on each 5 commits as that'd increase the rebuild, commit operations and the possibility of doing history +-5 are are vastly less then within 5 operations.this is not a good idea with possible file deletions on reverts- Integration tests for some git commands where it makes sense (commit, revert...etc)
Improvements that I'm aware of but won't do:
- Concurrently build/render the diffs for the diff command
- Improve performance of the diff algorithm
