gitgo
Gitgo provides Go functions for interacting with Git repositories.
Unlike libgit2, which is written in C, Gitgo is written in pure Go, and can be compiled and cross-compiled easily for all platforms supported by Go.
Installation
$ go get github.com/ChimeraCoder/gitgo
Usage
Full documentation is available on GoDoc.
Gitgo is a library intended to be used by other applications, rather than a replacement for the git command-line tools. However, gitgo does provide the gitgo binary, which is used for testing the gitgo library functions and demonstrating their functionality:
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ChimeraCoder/gitgo
$ gitgo log 1d833eb5b6c5369c0cb7a4a3e20ded237490145f

First commit. Create .gitignore
Note that the gitgo binary does not support all (or even most) of the functions provided by the gitgo library; it is intended for demonstration purposes and testing only.
