gitpatcher

A rust library that uses git to maintain a set of patch files against a submodule.

WARNING: Latest version v0.1.2 is currently broken due to libgit2 changes, please use v0.1.1 instead.

Features

• Uses libgit2 internally
• The patcher creates a single patch file per commit
• It automatically adds patch files to the parent repository
  • Internally filters out redundant changes in patches, to avoid committing unnecessary changes
