Hi everyone, I've been working on LibGit2 bindings for julia over the past month or so, steadily porting over the the test suite from Ruby's rugged<https://github.com/libgit2/rugged>library. Allmost all of the tests have been rewritten and are now passing. Most of the testing has been done on the development branch of the libgit library and on Linux. Please run the test suite and submit an issue if (when) it breaks on your system.
Hopefully once this matures some more it will enable Pkg to be be rewritten using libgit. See: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/4158, https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/4866 If you have any spare cycles please help! The api could be refactored quite a bit. Hopefully this is a good base to work from. Best, Jake
