Git remote helper for Mango.
Install
The package now uses an external IPFS node instead of one created from inside the code. Installing an IPFS node is fairly easy:
npm install -g ipfs
Then simply install git-mango-helper
globally.
npm install -g git-mango-helper
This will install the git-remote-mango
executable which will be used by git to support the mango://
protocol.
Usage
First, make sure you have an IPFS node running.
jsipfs daemon
Then simply use git normally with a mango address:
git pull mango://0x890fe361f9ede4ad40a3cac75877f9cd1183e0ab
Future work
Right now, git-mango-helper
connects by default to an IPFS node at localhost
port 5002
. A config command will be needed to work in production.
A NodeJs library would also be useful.
