# Git Cookbook
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/chef-cookbooks/git.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/chef-cookbooks/git) [![Cookbook Version](https://img.shields.io/cookbook/v/git.svg)](https://supermarket.chef.io/cookbooks/git)
Installs git_client from package or source. Optionally sets up a git service under xinetd.

### Chef
- Chef 14+
### Cookbooks
- none
## Usage
Add `git::default`, `git::source` or `git::windows` to your run_list OR add `depends 'git', '~> 4.3'` to your cookbook's metadata.rb. include_recipe one of the recipes from your cookbook OR use the git_client resource directly, the same way you'd use core Chef resources (file, template, directory, package, etc).
## Resources Overview
- `git_client`: Manages a Git client installation on a machine. Acts as a singleton when using the (default) package provider. Source provider available as well.
- `git_service`: Sets up a Git service via xinetd. WARNING: This is insecure and will probably be removed in the future
- `git_config`: Sets up Git configuration on a node.
### git_client
The `git_client` resource manages the installation of a Git client on a machine.
`Note`: on macOS systems homebrew must first be installed on the system before running this resource. Prior to version 9.0 of this cookbook homebrew was automatically installed.
#### Example
```ruby
git_client 'default' do
action :install
end
```
#### Example of source install
```ruby
git_client 'source' do
provider Chef::Provider::GitClient::Source
source_version '2.14.2'
source_checksum 'a03a12331d4f9b0f71733db9f47e1232d4ddce00e7f2a6e20f6ec9a19ce5ff61'
action :install
end
```
### git_config
The `git_config` resource manages the configuration of Git client on a machine.
#### Example
```ruby
git_config 'url.https://github.com/.insteadOf' do
value 'git://github.com/'
scope 'system'
options '--add'
end
```
#### Properties
Currently, there are distinct sets of resource properties, used by the providers for source, package, macos, and windows.
# used by linux package providers
- `package_name` - Package name to install on Linux machines. Defaults to a calculated value based on platform.
- `package_version` - Defaults to nil.
- `package_action` - Defaults to `:install`
# used by source providers
- `source_prefix` - Defaults to '/usr/local'
- `source_url` - Defaults to a calculated URL based on source_version
- `source_version` - Defaults to 2.8.1
- `source_use_pcre` - configure option for build. Defaults to false
- `source_checksum` - Defaults to a known value for the 2.8.1 source tarball
# used by the Windows package providers
- `windows_display_name` - Windows display name
- `windows_package_url` - Defaults to the Internet
- `windows_package_checksum` - Defaults to the value for 2.8.1
## Recipes
This cookbook ships with ready to use, attribute driven recipes that utilize the `git_client` and `git_service` resources. As of cookbook 4.x, they utilize the same attributes layout scheme from the 3.x. Due to some overlap, it is currently impossible to simultaneously install the Git client as a package and from source by using the "manipulate a the node attributes and run a recipe" technique. If you need both, you'll need to utilize the git_client resource in a recipe.
## Attributes
### Windows
- `node['git']['version']` - git version to install
- `node['git']['url']` - URL to git package
- `node['git']['checksum']` - package SHA256 checksum
- `node['git']['display_name']` - `windows_package` resource Display Name (makes the package install idempotent)
### Linux
- `node['git']['prefix']` - git install directory
- `node['git']['version']` - git version to install
- `node['git']['url']` - URL to git tarball
- `node['git']['checksum']` - tarball SHA256 checksum
- `node['git']['use_pcre']` - if true, builds git with PCRE enabled
