cygit2 is a wrapper around libgit2, similar fashion to pygit2.
The main difference at the moment is that cygit2 uses cython to wrap
the libgit2 C code rather than using C directly.
cygit2 is licensed under the terms of the GNU GPLv2 with the
libgcc linking exception. The full terms of the license can be found
in the LICENSE file included in this distribution.
cygit2 includes the pygit2 test suite (in the test/
subdirectory), which is also licensed under the terms of the GNU GPLv2
with the libgcc linking exception.
This assumes that libgit2 has already been built in ../libgit2 and
that the libgit2 binaries are in ../libgit2/build
Build with:
.. code-block:: console
$ python setup.py build_ext -i -I ../libgit2/include -L../libgit2/build -lgit2
Alternatively you can set the environment variables LIBGIT2 and LIBGIT2_LIB:
.. code-block:: console
$ LIBGIT2=../libgit2 LIBGIT2_LIB=../libgit2/build python setup.py build_ext -i
