-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-This module provides Perl scripts easy way to interface the Git version control
-system. The modules have an easy and well-tested way to call arbitrary Git
-commands; in the future, the interface will also provide specialized methods
-for doing easily operations which are not totally trivial to do over
-the generic command interface.
-
-While some commands can be executed outside of any context (e.g. 'version'
-or 'init'), most operations require a repository context, which in practice
-means getting an instance of the Git object using the repository() constructor.
-(In the future, we will also get a new_repository() constructor.) All commands
-called as methods of the object are then executed in the context of the
-repository.
-
-Part of the "repository state" is also information about path to the attached
-working copy (unless you work with a bare repository). You can also navigate
-inside of the working copy using the C<wc_chdir()> method. (Note that
-the repository object is self-contained and will not change working directory
-of your process.)
-
-TODO: In the future, we might also do
-
-	my $remoterepo = $repo->remote_repository (Name => 'cogito', Branch => 'master');
-	$remoterepo ||= Git->remote_repository ('http://git.or.cz/cogito.git/');
-	my @refs = $remoterepo->refs();
-
-Currently, the module merely wraps calls to external Git tools. In the future,
-it will provide a much faster way to interact with Git by linking directly
-to libgit. This should be completely opaque to the user, though (performance
-increase notwithstanding).

-=head1 CONSTRUCTORS
-
-=over 4
-
-=item repository ( OPTIONS )
-
-=item repository ( DIRECTORY )
-
-=item repository ()
-
-Construct a new repository object.
-C<OPTIONS> are passed in a hash like fashion, using key and value pairs.
-Possible options are:
-
-B<Repository> - Path to the Git repository.
-
-B<WorkingCopy> - Path to the associated working copy; not strictly required
-as many commands will happily crunch on a bare repository.
-
-B<WorkingSubdir> - Subdirectory in the working copy to work inside.
-Just left undefined if you do not want to limit the scope of operations.
-
-B<Directory> - Path to the Git working directory in its usual setup.
-The C<.git> directory is searched in the directory and all the parent
-directories; if found, C<WorkingCopy> is set to the directory containing
-it and C<Repository> to the C<.git> directory itself. If no C<.git>
-directory was found, the C<Directory> is assumed to be a bare repository,
-C<Repository> is set to point at it and C<WorkingCopy> is left undefined.
-If the C<$GIT_DIR> environment variable is set, things behave as expected
-as well.
-
-You should not use both C<Directory> and either of C<Repository> and
-C<WorkingCopy> - the results of that are undefined.
-
-Alternatively, a directory path may be passed as a single scalar argument
-to the constructor; it is equivalent to setting only the C<Directory> option
-field.
-
-Calling the constructor with no options whatsoever is equivalent to
-calling it with C<< Directory => '.' >>. In general, if you are building
-a standard porcelain command, simply doing C<< Git->repository() >> should
-do the right thing and setup the object to reflect exactly where the user
-is right now.

-=head1 METHODS
-
-=over 4
-
-=item command ( COMMAND [, ARGUMENTS... ] )
-
-=item command ( [ COMMAND, ARGUMENTS... ], { Opt => Val ... } )
-
-Execute the given Git C<COMMAND> (specify it without the 'git-'
-prefix), optionally with the specified extra C<ARGUMENTS>.
-
-The second more elaborate form can be used if you want to further adjust
-the command execution. Currently, only one option is supported:
-
-B<STDERR> - How to deal with the command's error output. By default (C<undef>)
-it is delivered to the caller's C<STDERR>. A false value (0 or '') will cause
-it to be thrown away. If you want to process it, you can get it in a filehandle
-you specify, but you must be extremely careful; if the error output is not
-very short and you want to read it in the same process as where you called
-C<command()>, you are set up for a nice deadlock!
-
-The method can be called without any instance or on a specified Git repository
-(in that case the command will be run in the repository context).
-
-In scalar context, it returns all the command output in a single string
-(verbatim).
-
-In array context, it returns an array containing lines printed to the
-command's stdout (without trailing newlines).
-
-In both cases, the command's stdin and stderr are the same as the caller's.

-whether the command finished successfully. The optional C<CTX> argument
-is required if you want to see the command name in the error message,
-and it is the second value returned by C<command_*_pipe()> when

-	my ($fh, $ctx) = $r->command_output_pipe('status');
-	while (<$fh>) { ... }
-	$r->command_close_pipe($fh, $ctx);

-
-Close the C<PIPE_IN> and C<PIPE_OUT> as returned from C<command_bidi_pipe()>,
-checking whether the command finished successfully. The optional C<CTX>
-argument is required if you want to see the command name in the error message,
-and it is the fourth value returned by C<command_bidi_pipe()>.  The call idiom
-is:
-
-	my ($pid, $in, $out, $ctx) = $r->command_bidi_pipe('cat-file --batch-check');
-	print $out "000000000\n";
-	while (<$in>) { ... }
-	$r->command_close_bidi_pipe($pid, $in, $out, $ctx);
-
-Note that you should not rely on whatever actually is in C<CTX>;
-currently it is simply the command name but in future the context might
-have more complicated structure.
-
-C<PIPE_IN> and C<PIPE_OUT> may be C<undef> if they have been closed prior to
-calling this function.  This may be useful in a query-response type of
-commands where caller first writes a query and later reads response, eg:
-
-	my ($pid, $in, $out, $ctx) = $r->command_bidi_pipe('cat-file --batch-check');
-	print $out "000000000\n";
-	close $out;
-	while (<$in>) { ... }
-	$r->command_close_bidi_pipe($pid, $in, undef, $ctx);
-
-This idiom may prevent potential dead locks caused by data sent to the output
-pipe not being flushed and thus not reaching the executed command.

-
-Execute the given C<COMMAND> in the same way as command() does but do not

-
-While the method is called command_noisy(), you might want to as well use
-it for the most silent Git commands which you know will never pollute your
-stdout but you want to avoid the overhead of the pipe setup when calling them.

-=item credential( CREDENTIAL_HASHREF, CODE )
-
-Executes C<git credential> for a given set of credentials and specified
-operation.  In both forms C<CREDENTIAL_HASHREF> needs to be a reference to
-a hash which stores credentials.  Under certain conditions the hash can
-change.
-
-In the first form, C<OPERATION> can be C<'fill'>, C<'approve'> or C<'reject'>,
-and function will execute corresponding C<git credential> sub-command.  If
-it's omitted C<'fill'> is assumed.  In case of C<'fill'> the values stored in
-C<CREDENTIAL_HASHREF> will be changed to the ones returned by the C<git
-credential fill> command.  The usual usage would look something like:
-
-	my %cred = (
-		'protocol' => 'https',
-		'host' => 'example.com',
-		'username' => 'bob'
-	);
-	Git::credential \%cred;

-		Git::credential \%cred, 'approve';
-		... do more stuff ...
-	} else {
-		Git::credential \%cred, 'reject';
-	}
-
-In the second form, C<CODE> needs to be a reference to a subroutine.  The
-function will execute C<git credential fill> to fill the provided credential
-hash, then call C<CODE> with C<CREDENTIAL_HASHREF> as the sole argument.  If
-C<CODE>'s return value is defined, the function will execute C<git credential
-approve> (if return value yields true) or C<git credential reject> (if return
-value is false).  If the return value is undef, nothing at all is executed;
-this is useful, for example, if the credential could neither be verified nor
-rejected due to an unrelated network error.  The return value is the same as
-what C<CODE> returns.  With this form, the usage might look as follows:
-
-	if (Git::credential {
-		'protocol' => 'https',
-		'host' => 'example.com',
-		'username' => 'bob'
-	}, sub {
-		my $cred = shift;

-call context; C<command_noisy()> returns C<undef>) and $<cmdline> which
-returns the command and its arguments (but without proper quoting).
-
-Note that the C<command_*_pipe()> functions cannot throw this exception since
-it has no idea whether the command failed or not. You will only find out
-at the time you C<close> the pipe; if you want to have that automated,
-use C<command_close_pipe()>, which can throw the exception.

-
-This magical statement will automatically catch any C<Git::Error::Command>
-exceptions thrown by C<CODE> and make your program die with C<ERRMSG>
-on its lips; the message will have %s substituted for the command line
-and %d for the exit status. This statement is useful mostly for producing
-more user-friendly error messages.
-
-In case of no exception caught the statement returns C<CODE>'s return value.
-
-Note that this is the only auto-exported function.
