After you clone this repository, what you have to do first is execute the unpacker script:
./unpack.sh
Object files cloned from GitHub is packed for an efficient transmission, but (for the moment) my WYAG cannot deal with packfiles. The unpacker script just unpacks the packfiles and create loose objects which WYAG can understand.
Git is one of the most commonly used softwares in the world of software engineers. Despite of its strong ability, the core architecture of Git is surprisingly simple and easy to understand/implement. Therefore Git can be a perfect "first shot" in learning new programming languages.
I recently found a great article implementing Git in Python.
Although it does not affect the benefits of the original article, the article is still imperfect, for example it lacks some important commands such as commit.
In this project, I extend the original implementation in python and add implementations in other languages.[
- Python3
- Scala (next up)
