# git2_nif

Comprehensive (eventually, in the future) NIF bindings for
[libgit2](https://libgit2.org) by [Merge Base](https://merge-base.com).

Uses [git2-rs](https://github.com/rust-lang/git2-rs) via
[rustler](https://hex.pm/packages/rustler) rather than direct C NIFs.

This is not necessarily an endorsement of git2-rs, though it's a plausibly
reliable first-party Rust library; it's more of an endorsement of rustler 
NIFs as easier to write than C NIFs.
