[!IMPORTANT] This project is no longer maintained and the repository is archived.
It never left the experimental stage, and it has not been updated in years:
go.modtargets Go 1.17 and pins IPFS libraries from 2019. Expect to fix things before it builds and runs.Two known potholes, both reported and never fixed. The
go getinstall step below stopped working when Go 1.18 removed package installation fromgo get; usego install <pkg>@latestinstead. And there are open reports of segfaults on some Linux distributions.The idea still holds up: Kubo continues to ship the git IPLD codec, so a working helper is possible. It just needs someone to do the work. There are 30-odd forks, and forking is a fine answer.
The repository can be unarchived, but only for a named maintainer who commits to keeping it up. If that is you, reach out to the IPFS Foundation.
Git IPLD remote helper
Push and fetch commits using IPFS!
This helper is experimental as of now
Usage
Clone an example repository:
$ git clone ipld://2347e110c29742a1783134ef45f5bff58b29e40e
Pull a commit:
$ git pull ipld://2347e110c29742a1783134ef45f5bff58b29e40e
Push:
$ git push --set-upstream ipld:// master
Note: Some features like remote tracking are still missing, though the plugin is quite usable. IPNS helper is WIP and doesn't yet do what it should
Installation
go get github.com/ipfs-shipyard/git-remote-ipldmake install- Done
- Make sure you run go-ipfs 0.4.17 or newer as you need git support
Limitations / TODOs
- ipns remote is not implemented fully yet
Troubleshooting
fetch: manifest has unsupported version: 2 (we support 3)on any command- This usually means that tracker data format has changed
- Simply do
rm -rf .git/ipld
Contribute
This repository is archived and is not accepting contributions. Drive-by patches will not reopen it. Unarchiving requires someone willing to be named as maintainer. If that is you, contact the IPFS Foundation. Forking is fine too.
