If not, see . ;;; Commentary: ;; `org-git-link.el' defines two new link types. The `git' link ;; type is meant to be used in the typical scenario and mimics the ;; `file' link syntax as closely as possible. The `gitbare' link ;; type exists mostly for debugging reasons, but also allows e.g. ;; linking to files in a bare git repository for the experts. ;; * User friendy form ;; [[git:/path/to/file::searchstring]] ;; This form is the familiar from normal org file links ;; including search options. However, its use is ;; restricted to files in a working directory and does not ;; handle bare repositories on purpose (see the bare form for ;; that). ;; The search string references a commit (a tree-ish in Git ;; terminology). The two most useful types of search strings are ;; - A symbolic ref name, usually a branch or tag name (e.g. ;; master or nobelprize). ;; - A ref followed by the suffix @ with a date specification ;; enclosed in a brace pair (e.g. {yesterday}, {1 month 2 ;; weeks 3 days 1 hour 1 second ago} or {1979-02-26 18:30:00}) ;; to specify the value of the ref at a prior point in time ;; ;; * Bare git form ;; [[gitbare:$GIT_DIR::$OBJECT]] ;; ;; This is the more bare metal version, which gives the user most ;; control. It directly translates to the git command ;; git --no-pager --git-dir=$GIT_DIR show $OBJECT ;; Using this version one can also view files from a bare git ;; repository. For detailed information on how to specify an ;; object, see the man page of `git-rev-parse' (section ;; SPECIFYING REVISIONS). A specific blob (file) can be ;; specified by a suffix clolon (:) followed by a path. ;;; Code: (require 'org) (require 'ol) (defcustom org-git-program "git" "Name of the git executable used to follow git links." :type '(string) :group 'org) ;; org link functions ;; bare git link (org-link-set-parameters "gitbare" :follow #'org-gitbare-open) (defun org-gitbare-open (str _) (let* ((strlist (org-git-split-string str)) (gitdir (nth 0 strlist)) (object (nth 1 strlist))) (org-git-open-file-internal gitdir object))) (defun org-git-open-file-internal (gitdir object) (let* ((sha (org-git-blob-sha gitdir object)) (tmpdir (concat temporary-file-directory "org-git-" sha)) (filename (org-git-link-filename object)) (tmpfile (expand-file-name filename tmpdir))) (unless (file-readable-p tmpfile) (make-directory tmpdir) (with-temp-file tmpfile (org-git-show gitdir object (current-buffer)))) (org-open-file tmpfile) (set-buffer (get-file-buffer tmpfile)) (setq buffer-read-only t))) ;; user friendly link (org-link-set-parameters "git" :follow #'org-git-open :store #'org-git-store-link) (defun org-git-open (str _) (let* ((strlist (org-git-split-string str)) (filepath (nth 0 strlist)) (commit (nth 1 strlist)) (line (nth 2 strlist)) (dirlist (org-git-find-gitdir (file-truename filepath))) (gitdir (nth 0 dirlist)) (relpath (nth 1 dirlist))) (org-git-open-file-internal gitdir (concat commit ":" relpath)) (when line (save-restriction (widen) (goto-char (point-min)) (forward-line (1- (string-to-number line))))))) ;; Utility functions (file names etc) (defun org-git-split-dirpath (dirpath) "Given a directory name, return '(dirname basname)" (let ((dirname (file-name-directory (directory-file-name dirpath))) (basename (file-name-nondirectory (directory-file-name dirpath)))) (list dirname basename))) ;; finding the git directory (defun org-git-find-gitdir (path) "Given a file (not necessarily existing) file path, return the a pair (gitdir relpath), where gitdir is the path to the first .git subdirectory found updstream and relpath is the rest of the path.
