Support for plain old git? #32

Closed angusmf closed 6 years ago

angusmf commented 6 years ago

Since use of an external git adapter is recommended, I was curious about the lack of support for the "normal" git executable that is usually added to PATH (which seems to be how you're doing LFS.) Is there a limitation requiring use of lib2gitSharp or these other programs? I looked at the existing adapters and it seems like it would work ok, and probably then work on linux and mac.

I recommend external apps just because they should be more tested with more users. Using just UniGit should be just fine. In fact I use it for developing UniGit itself. As for LFS I just can't get enough documentation oh now to use it with lib2gitSharp, that's why for example it doesn't work with multithreaded staging and commits.

And yes using lib2gitSharp is much more simple and reliable than using the git exe. I will have to write all sort of boilerplate codes.

Thanks. I was curious because the adapters were windows-only, and have noticed some functionality lib2gitSharp doesn't have while attempting to do some automation code.
