Create and access git repositories
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
gitlib provides methods to initialize new repositories.
|
|
|
|
Create a repository
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
To initialize a new repository, use method `Admin::init`.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// Initialize a bare repository
|
|
$repository = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::init('/path/to/repository');
|
|
|
|
// Initialize a non-bare repository
|
|
$repository = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::init('/path/to/repository', false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Default behavior is to create a bare repository. If you want to
|
|
initialize a repository with a working copy,pass `false` as third
|
|
argument of Repository constructor.
|
|
|
|
Cloning repositories
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
You can clone a repository from an URL by doing:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// Clone to a bare repository
|
|
$repository = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::cloneTo('/tmp/gitlib', 'https://github.com/gitonomy/gitlib.git');
|
|
|
|
// Clone to a non-bare repository
|
|
$repository = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::cloneTo('/tmp/gitlib', 'https://github.com/gitonomy/gitlib.git', false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Default behavior is to clone in a bare repository.
|
|
|
|
You can also clone a repository and point it to a specific branch. In a
|
|
non-bare repository, this branch will be checked out:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// Clone to a bare repository
|
|
$repository = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::cloneBranchTo('/tmp/gitlib', 'https://github.com/gitonomy/gitlib.git', 'a-branch');
|
|
|
|
// Clone to a non-bare repository
|
|
$repository = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::cloneBranchTo('/tmp/gitlib', 'https://github.com/gitonomy/gitlib.git', 'a-branch', false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Clone a Repository object
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you already have a Repository instance and want to clone it, you can
|
|
use this shortcut:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$new = $repository->cloneTo('/tmp/clone');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Mirror a repository
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to mirror fully a repository and all references, use the
|
|
`mirrorTo` method. This method takes only two arguments, where to mirror
|
|
and what to mirror:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// Mirror to a bare repository
|
|
$mirror = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::mirrorTo('/tmp/mirror', 'https://github.com/gitonomy/gitlib.git');
|
|
|
|
// Mirror to a non-bare repository
|
|
$mirror = Gitonomy\Git\Admin::mirrorTo('/tmp/mirror', 'https://github.com/gitonomy/gitlib.git', false);
|
|
```
