hagit

A basic version control system written in Haskell based on the Git protocol.

Installation

In order to build this project stack must be installed. Once that is done, build and test project:

$ stack setup
$ stack build
$ stack test

After building, use stack exec hagit to run, or copy the generated binary to another directory.

Assuming that the hagit binary is ./hagit:

$ ./hagit <command> [arguments]

During development use:

$ stack exec hagit <command> [arguments]

Valid commands are:

init: initializes the project directory required to run other hagit commands on it.
commit: stores all of the project's files in a commit, identified by a unique hash and a message.
checkout: restores the project directory to the state of the given commit or branch. If supplied with nonexistent branch name - creates new branch. Potentially merges files content.
log: lists all commits in chronological order with hash, parent's hash, date and message.
add: adds specified files or directory to staging area.
remove: removes specified files or directory from staging area.
branch: lists branches.
diff: diffs files with versions in staging area; output like UNIX diff.
status: prints the current commit hash, and lists any new, deleted or modified in working tree, staging area and last commit.
help: displays help.

Tests can be found in tests folder.

Documentation can be found in docs folder - main page.
