RepositoryHandler is a Python library for handling code repositories through a common interface.
This is a fork from the original in order to add patches. Feature parity with the original code is not guaranteed.
cvs- Subversion (
svn) git- Bazaar (
bzr) (Preliminary support) - Tarball
- Python >= 2.4 (this might change to Python 2.6... upgrade already :) )
- cvs client
- svn client

This version of RepositoryHandler should be installed using pip, which will allow you to install it from source here at GitHub.
pip install -e "git+git://github.com/Lewisham/repositoryhandler.git#egg=repositoryhandler"
If you don't have pip, you can download the source package using the big "Download" button in the top-right, then run
python setup.py install
You'll probably want to use sudo for that, in order to put packages in Python's default place. If you know how to mess
with your Python load paths, you can omit it.
As this package is an unofficial fork, it will not be uploaded to PyPi in the foreseeable future.

# create a cvs repository for poppler on FreeDesktop
repo = create_repository ('cvs', ':pserver:[email protected]:/cvs/poppler')
# checkout module poppler into /tmp directory from HEAD
repo.checkout ('poppler', '/tmp/')
# update working copy on /tmp from POPPLER_0_5_X branch
repo.update ('/tmp/poppler', rev = 'POPPLER_0_5_X')
# show diff between HEAD and POPPLER_0_5_X branches
diff = repo.diff ('/tmp/poppler', revs = ['HEAD', 'POPPLER_0_5_X'])
print diff
# show history for ChangeLog file
history = repo.log ('/tmp/poppler', files = ['ChangeLog'])
