Got

Like Git, but with an 'o'

Got is version control, with a model similar to Git's, extending ideas from WebFS.

Got uses INET256 to easily and securely connect repositories.

• E2E encryption. Branch names, directory names, file names, and file sizes can all be hidden from remote repositories.
• Stage changes with add, rm, put, and discard commands.
• Inspect branch state with cat and ls.
• Print and change the active branch with active command.
• Commit changes, with commit.
• Create, delete, and list branches with branch commands.
• Copy one branch state to another with sync.
• Share repositories over INET256 using serve command.
• Branch level access control using ACL defined in a .got/policy file.
• Checkout the head of a branch to the working directory.
• Merge 2 branches.

Getting Started

Either download a prebuilt binary or build one from source.

Then initialize a repository in the current working directory. Make sure you cd to where you want the repository.

$ got init

Contributing

To run the tests:

$ make test

Installs to $GOPATH/bin with make. If that isn't on your path, just copy the executable from there to wherever you want.

$ make install

To build release binaries

TAG=v0.0.x make build

Where TAG is an environment variable which should be set to the release version, or the Git hash of the source used for the build. The release binaries will be under the build directory.
