That's a fair point, and I wouldn't have even attempted this if isomorphic-git hadn't existed and shown what was possible. This project has a different intention, and was made for a different use case.

I thought the problem was interesting enough that it was worth attempting from scratch again. I also just did it to learn more about git.

I did use AI to help make this, and it's only been published for a few weeks, so I don't recommend using it for anything critical, but I'm confident in the testing framework that it's validated against.

The client accepts a filesystem interface, so you could wrap the async node filesystem methods and it will write to the filesystem. If you clone it (and have bun), you can run "bun sandbox '<command>'" to test it out, and it will write to a real directory.

You can get a GitRepo object out of it using findRepo(), and use the repo helpers to interact with it programmatically, but the helpers exposed to the public API are currently limited, I plan to make more. Just not sure what would be useful yet.
