git-config is a library for interacting with git-config files.
This crate intents to be a performant Rust implementation for reading and
writing git-config files. It exposes tiers of abstractions, from simple
config value wrappers to a high level reader and writer.
The highlight of this crate is the zero-copy parser. We employ techniques to avoid copying where necessary, and reads that do not need normalization are guaranteed to be zero-copy. Higher level abstractions maintain this guarantee, and utilizes acceleration structures for increased performance.
Currently, this is not a binary. While we do intent to have a drop-in
replacement for the git config sub-command, we're currently missing
system-level abstractions to do so.
Reading and writing to a config:
```rust use gitconfig::file::GitConfig; use gitconfig::values::Boolean; use std::fs::readtostring;
let input = r#" [core] some-bool = true
[other "internal"]
hello = world
"#;
let mut config = GitConfig::from(input)?;
let boolean = config.getconfig::
Contributions are always welcome!
This repository enables pedantic, cargo, and nursery clippy lints. Make sure
to run cargo clean && cargo clippy (the clean stage is very important!) to
ensure your code is linted.
Since this is a performance oriented crate, in addition to well tested code via
cargo test, we also perform benchmarks to measure notable gains or losses in
performance. We use [criterion] so benches can be run via cargo bench after
installing it via cargo install cargo-criterion.
Changes to parser.rs may include a request to fuzz to ensure that it cannot
panic on inputs. This can be done by executing cargo fuzz parser after
installing the fuzz sub-command via cargo install cargo-fuzz.
