I haven't implemented that API. I'll add it later

http://libgit2.github.com/libgit2/#HEAD/group/reference/git_reference_create_oid

also, this documents are useful.

hi , @chobie , thanks very much for your help first.
Git2\Reference::create is useful and works well now , and how to checkout the branch?

Answer 6 · 2012-09-27T05:14:36.000Z

did you mean checkout specified commit into working directory? also that API doesn't implement yet.
I'll add checkout API soon.

Answer 7 · 2012-09-27T05:45:43.000Z

ok and I am waiting for it.

Answer 8 · 2012-09-27T13:20:17.000Z

@ZhuRong sorry, that API still experimental. you should execute git checkout with shell.

Answer 9 · 2012-09-27T13:45:22.000Z

Did you mean that API is experimental in library named libgit2?

Answer 10 · 2012-09-27T14:27:07.000Z

http://libgit2.github.com/libgit2/#HEAD/group/checkout/git_checkout_tree

specifically, there is git_checkout_tree API in libgit2. and it seems work in progress.
so I'd like to add this API into phpgit when libgit2 tagged next version.

Answer 11 · 2012-09-27T14:42:21.000Z

Oh,I'll keep attention with it and maybe I should execute checkout with shell until libgit2 tagged next version.
Thanks for your help again.Good night at last :-)
