Git provides no C API, if that's what you mean. You can link with libgit.a, but there's no guarantee it won't break someday. At a higher "API" level such as shell scripting, still "no", but I think you could modify "git ls-files" to support running 'ls-files -i' without a git repository (like git-grep --no-index). I think it'll work, mostly, but not entirely sure. -- Duy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
