HI John, Thanks for taking the time to look at this - anytime you have is appreciated.
As I'm not familiar with FFI and I'm not clear what the benefits over git that lib2git brings on Windows/Linux/Macos I was honestly considering leaving 'as-is' libgit2 and adding using git as an option in DrRackGit (via racket/system) on the grounds that users will have git installed anyway. (I'm pretty sure 'Github desktop' uses git, though it might have changed to libgit2 in an update) If you feel FFI/Libgit2 is worth the effort I'll follow you lead - please don't hesitate to give me any task that will help. > I definitely don’t have any time before next Tuesday. Not a problem - I'm enthusiastic but DrRacket isn't my day job either. 😁 Thanks again, Stephen --- Welcome to DrRacket, version 6.11 [3m].
