Method

GgitRepositorycreate_commit_from_ids

Declaration [src] 

GgitOId*
ggit_repository_create_commit_from_ids (
  GgitRepository* repository,
  const gchar* update_ref,
  GgitSignature* author,
  GgitSignature* committer,
  const gchar* message_encoding,
  const gchar* message,
  GgitOId* tree,
  GgitOId** parents,
  gint parent_count,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Create a new commit. If update_ref is not NULL, the given reference will be updated to point to the newly created commit. Use “HEAD” to update the HEAD of the current branch and make it point to this commit.

If message_encoding is set to NULL, “UTF-8” encoding is assumed for the provided message. Note that message will not be cleaned up automatically. You can use #ggit_message_prettify to do this yourself if needed.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.
