Project yacgit - Yet Another C Git Implementation

Overview

yacgit is a lightweight implementation of Git core features in C. This project aims to provide a simple, educational, and functional implementation of Git's core concepts, including blobs, trees, and commits. It also includes a basic hashing function to support Git-like object storage.

Features

Necessary

• Blobs: Store file contents as blobs in memory.
• Hashing: Generate SHA-1-like hashes for Git objects.
• Commits: Create commits that reference trees and blobs.
• Trees: Represent directory structures using trees.
• Diff:
• Merge:

Additional

• Blobs compress
• Branches
• Subfolders
• Rebase
