# forge
## Design Goals
* Software engineering is the art of making things work.
* Release engineering is the art of making things perfect.
## Notes
This can be used to maintain git repositories
expiremental work on federated git
* Scans directories looking for git repositories
* The default behavior is to use 3 branches. 'master or main', 'devel', '<username>'
* shows tags and dirty state
* uses a GUI or the console(console display needs work)
* always wrap around 'git' -- it basically just types 'git' commands really fast
## Development Goals
* have a GUI that also works on the command line
## Install:
* go install go.wit.com/apps/forge@latest
## building from sources
```
# note as of Feb 2025. Forge has an option in forge to build itself.
# The instructions below are out of date, but provide the general idea.
# accurate instructions are in the forge code itself
go install go.wit.com/apps/go-clone@latest # this tool makes it easier to 'git clone' repos and recursively 'git clone' the dependancies
go install go.wit.com/apps/autogenpb@latest # this tool will generate the protobuf *pb.go files (also Marshal(), Sort(), etc.)
go-clone go.wit.com/apps/forge # this will 'git clone' about 20 repos into ~/go/src (or where your go.work file is)
cd go.wit.com/lib/protobuf/forgepb
make # autogenpb will make .pb.go, marshal.pb.go and sort.pb.go files
cd go.wit.com/lib/protobuf/gitpb
make # autogenpb will make .pb.go, marshal.pb.go and sort.pb.go files
cd go.wit.com/apps/forge
make # this runs GO111MODULE=off go build insuring that your using only your git sources
```
