\chapter{Introduction}
The \git{} distributed version control system
maintains an historical log of update activity.
The \tpname{} package provides a way automatically
to typeset such a log, optionally linking commits
from the typeset log
to one of the online \textsc{dvcs} hosting services.

\section{Limitations}
The current release (\gitRel)
is intended only as a \emph{proof-of-concept},
and should not be used for production-level work
unless you're happy with these limitations:
\begin{itemize}
\item Formatting maliciously-coded documents
\textbf{\emph{can cause arbitrary files to be overwritten.}}
Although this problem is easy to avoid
(and requires the \sfit{--shell-escape} command line option),
there are no built-in protections.
\item The \git\ change log is built and formatted using the
facilities of \sfit{biblatex} and \sfit{biber}.
The way this is currently implemented makes it unlikely that
documents using \tpname\ can contain `normal' bibliographies.
\item New lines in the \git\ change log commit messages are
simply converted to spaces.
The result is pretty ugly,
unless you've had the foresight
to punctuate your commit messages nicely.
\end{itemize}
\noindent
That said, I think \tpname\ will still be useful to a subset of \TeX\ users,
and I welcome suggestions and contributed code via email or Github, where the url is
\url{https://github.com/Hightor/gitlog/issues}.

\section{How \tpname\ works}
\begin{enumerate}
\item The package uses a git command internally, via the \tcmd{write18} command,
to write out the change log in the shape of a rather strange
\sfit{.bib} file
\item The change log .bib file contains a series of items of type \sfit{gitcommit},
defined and formatted by the \tpname\
data model and bibliography styles which accompany the package.
\item The rest of the work is done by persuading \sfit{biblatex} and \sfit{biber}
to treat this data as a bibliography.
\item Optionally, you can generate your own `change log bibliography',
using this command (joined up into a single line):\\[\baselineskip]
{\ttfamily
git --no-pager log --reverse --date=short\\
--pretty="format:@gitcommit\{\%h,\%n author = \{\%an\},\%n\\
date = \{\%ad\}, \%n title = \{\%B\}, \%n commithash = \{\%H\}\\
\}" > \textit{filename}
}
\end{enumerate}
% -----------------------------------------------------
\chapter{Using the package}
\label{ch:using}
To collect and typeset \git{} history,
you load the \tpname\ package in the usual way:\\[0.5\baselineskip]
\texttt{\textbackslash usepackage[$<options>$]\{gitlog\}}
% - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
\section{Package options}
The following options are available:
\subsection{General options}
\begin{description}
\item[\texttt{title=\textit{log title}}]
This option allows you to change the chapter title associated with
the typeset change log.
The default is `Change Log'.
\item[\texttt{date}, \texttt{nodate}]
These complementary options
allow you to specify whether or not you want
the author date and name to be added to the change log.
The default is \texttt{nodate}.
\end{description}
\subsection{Options for controlling the .bib file}
\begin{description}
\item[\texttt{write}, \texttt{nowrite}]
These complementary options
allow you to specify whether or not you want
\tpname\ to generate the special change log (\sfit{.bib})
for you.
If you specify \texttt{write}, then \tpname\ will regenerate the
change log every time the document is formatted.
Note that this option is implemented with the \tcmd{write18} command,
and requires that your document be processed with the \TeX option
\texttt{--shell-escape}.
If you specify \texttt{nowrite}, then \tpname\ will not write anything,
and the \texttt{--shell-escape} option is not required.
However, in this case,
you are responsible for generating the change log
in the correct format for \tpname\ to use,
as well as being able to hand-tailor it.
If neither option is specified, the default depends on whether or not
you use the \sfit{bibfile} option, described next.
\clearpage
\item[\texttt{bibfile=\textit{filename}}]
The \git\ change log data is kept in
a file in \sfit{biblatex .bib} format,
which \tpname\ writes (if requested) and then reads
to format the change log.
If this option is not specified, then a default filename
is used:
\textit{<jobname>}\texttt{.gitlog.bib}.
In this case, the default option \sfit{write} is used,
but can be suppressed by specifying \texttt{nowrite}.
This can be overridden by specifying your own choice
of filename using this option.
In this case, the default option \sfit{nowrite} is used,
but you can force \tpname\ to write to your file
by specifying \texttt{write}.
\dark{Warning:} there is \emph{no} protection against writing
to any file name whatsoever.
The default settings are reasonably `safe';
where you need to ship the document without its repository,
then
\begin{quote}
{\ttfamily
[write,bibfile=\jobname.local.bib]
}
\end{quote}
is probably a safe set of options to use.
\end{description}
\subsection{Options for linking to on-line services}
The change log typeset by \tpname\ can include links
connecting each commit to its corresponding page
in either the GitHub or the Atlassian Bitbucket
online repository services.
(Trade marks of their respective owners.)
To use this feature, you must load the \sfit{hyperref} package
before loading \tpname, and use one of the following,
mutually exclusive, options.
\begin{description}
\item[\texttt{github=\textit{repository-path}}]
When each commit in the changelog is typeset,
a link is generated to the corresponding page on GitHub,
with a \textsc{url} in this format:
\begin{quote}
{\ttfamily\small
https://github.com/{\rmfamily\itshape repository-path}/commit/{\rmfamily\itshape commit-hash}
}
\end{quote}
\item[\texttt{bitbucket=\textit{repository-path}}]
When each commit in the changelog is typeset,
a link is generated to the corresponding page on Atlassian Bitbucket,
with a \textsc{url} in this format:
\begin{quote}
{\ttfamily\small
https://bitbucket.org/{\rmfamily\itshape repository-path}/commits/{\rmfamily\itshape commit-hash}
}
\end{quote}
\end{description}
\section{Typesetting the change log}
The command \tcmd{printGitLog}
typesets the change log, as a new chapter containing a pseudo-bibliography,
at that point in the document.
At the moment, there are very few options to allow you to tailor the typography.
A sample change log can be seen at the end of this manual.

\section{Release notes}
\rpara{R0.0.beta: 2015-11-24}
Initial beta release
\section{Acknowledgements}
The \href{http://tex.stackexchange.com}{\TeX.SE community}
has been a constant source of help, inspiration, and amazement.
I'd also like to register my thanks to the owners of the packages and tools
on which \tpname\ depends:
biblatex, etoolbox, hyperref, and kvoptions,
and also to
\href{http://tex.stackexchange.com/users/35864/moewe}{moewe at \TeX.SE} for
invaluable help during my ongoing stumblings with \sfit{biblatex}.
We all depend heavily on the constant hard work
so unstintingly given to the community by the Guardians of CTAN.
Thank you all.
The failings, of course, I claim for myself.

\section{From the author}
Although my limitations as a \TeX nician
mean that I'm going to need a lot of expert help
to turn \tpname\ into a delightful author experience,
I hope you find the package useful and the concept interesting.
I'll be very happy to receive your comments by email.\\[\baselineskip]
