Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Downloadig files or git repositories from the web
There are clone methods that do all that. The clone example shows how to use it with status callbacks. Remove all the callbacks, and it is just Repository::clone("url", "destination")

Gex: Git CLI inspired by Emac's Magit built in Rust
The correct way of going about this would be to use only the low-level "plumbing" commands of git and not the porcelain. Or you can get even better performance by using https://github.com/rust-lang/git2-rs, which basically reimplements git as a library.

[Media] My first rust app, git smart checkout, fuzzy search that branch, I kinda like this language ❤️🦀
You may want into look into this crate: https://github.com/rust-lang/git2-rs
- `Cargo install --git` -- received unexpected content-type

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (32/2021)!
I want to get the output of git log --follow --format=%aD | tail -1 by using git2-rs. I found git2-rs/examples/log.rs, but I still confused on how to use it.

Question about libgit2, working with index does not show on cli `git status`
I am trying to use libgit2 through the rust library git2. I open the default index for the repository, equivalent to git_repository_index. When verifying it's path, it does point to .git/index.

Looking for a version control crate
https://github.com/rust-lang/git2-rs uses libgit2-sys which I believe can install git into your finally binary statically.

rebuilderd 0.9.0: reproducible builds verification system used by Arch Linux
Yes! We have multiple rust projects in Arch Linux that we've successfully rebuilt, for example rebuilderd or rustc/cargo itself. We occasionally run into projects that aren't reproducible, this is usually due to issues in build.rs. One of the issues I fixed is this one: https://github.com/rust-lang/git2-rs/pull/619

Radicle: Open-Source, Peer-to-Peer, GitHub Alternative
Everything that is replicated on the network is stored as a Git object, using the libgit2[0] library. This library uses hardened SHA-1 internally, which is called sha1dc (for "detect collision").

Speedbump – a TCP proxy to simulate variable network latency
This is delightful and I can't wait to try it out. Right now, the libgit2 project (https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2) has a custom HTTP git server wrapper that will throttle the responses down to a very slow rate. It's fun watching a `git clone` running over 2400 baud modem speeds, but it's actually been incredibly helpful for testing timeouts, odd buffering problems, and other things that crop up in weird network environments.
I'd love to jettison our hacky custom code and use something off-the-shelf instead.

GitKraken Client Is Migrating from Libgit2 to the Git Executable
I've built a UI on top of libgit2 and I wish that this blog post expanded on which new features are missing (sparse checkout?).
To quote: "The migration to Git Executable will allow us to resolve long-standing issues with GitKraken Client, such as poor LFS performance, SSH configuration support and many other features/performance improvements."
I agree on LFS performance on Windows. SSH config support is a pain due to libssh2 but openssh support is on the way (https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/pull/6617).
There are many cons to using the Git executable itself (parsing output, error reporting, version handling). Seems to me that there's more to this?

Mold 2.0.0
I'm curious about the license change? This is an executable is it not? Invoking it as a separate process does not require you make the software calling it GPL so switching to MIT should have no affect in the common case.
If the authors really wanted a more permissive license, then instead of relicensing from AGPL to MIT they should have gone AGPL with linking exception. An example of a project that does this is libgit2 [1]. This licensing is more permissive but still permits the author to sell commercial licenses to those making closed-source code changes.

I'm feeling lazy today but want a better excuse than "working on documention" for the morning standup.
Using libxlsxwriter and libgit, it's straightforward -- just putting the equivalent of git shortlog and lines added and removed into a line of cells.
