# Overview
GitMan is a language-agnostic dependency manager using Git. It aims to serve as a submodules replacement and provides advanced options for managing versions of nested Git repositories.
# Setup
## Requirements
* Python 3.5+
* Git 2.8+ (with [stored credentials](http://gitman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup/git/))
## Installation
Install GitMan with pip:
```sh
$ pip install gitman
```
or directly from the source code:
```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/jacebrowning/gitman.git
$ cd gitman
$ python setup.py install
```
## Configuration
Generate a sample config file:
```sh
$ gitman init
```
or manually create one (`gitman.yml` or `.gitman.yml`) in the root of your working tree:
```yaml
location: vendor/gitman
sources:
- name: framework
repo: https://github.com/kstenerud/iOS-Universal-Framework
rev: Mk5-end-of-life
- name: coverage
repo: https://github.com/jonreid/XcodeCoverage
rev: master
link: Tools/XcodeCoverage
- name: trufflehog
repo: https://github.com/dxa4481/truffleHog
rev: master
scripts:
- chmod a+x truffleHog.py
- name: fontawesome
repo: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome
sparse_paths:
- fonts/*
rev: master
```
Ignore the dependency storage location:
```sh
$ echo vendor/gitman >> .gitignore
```
# Usage
See the available commands:
```sh
$ gitman --help
```
## Updating Dependencies
Get the latest versions of all dependencies:
```sh
$ gitman update
```
which will essentially:
1. Create a working tree at `<root>`/`<location>`/`<name>`
2. Fetch from `repo` and checkout the specified `rev`
3. Symbolically link each `<location>`/`<name>` from `<root>`/`<link>` (if specified)
4. Repeat for all nested working trees containing a config file
5. Record the actual commit SHAs that were checked out (with `--lock` option)
6. Run optional post-install scripts for each dependency
where `rev` can be:
* all or part of a commit SHA: `123def`
* a tag: `v1.0`
* a branch: `master`
* a `rev-parse` date: `'develop@{2015-06-18 10:30:59}'`
## Restoring Previous Versions
Display the specific revisions that are currently installed:
```sh
$ gitman list
```
Reinstall these specific versions at a later time:
```sh
$ gitman install
```
## Deleting Dependencies
Remove all installed dependencies:
```sh
$ gitman uninstall
```
