ReGit - A Tiny Git-compatible Git Implementation

ReGit is a tiny Git implementation written in Golang. It uses the same underlying file formats as Git. Therefore, all the changes made by ReGit can be checked by Git.

This project does not aim at implementing all the features of Git. It is just an experimental implementation for learning purpose.

Note: This project is still under active development. Many of the details haven't been handled carefully. Also, it has been tested on macOS only.
