Method

GgitRepositoryget_ahead_behind

Declaration [src]

void
ggit_repository_get_ahead_behind (
  GgitRepository* repository,
  GgitOId* local,
  GgitOId* upstream,
  gsize* ahead,
  gsize* behind,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Count the number of unique commits between two commit objects.

There is no need for branches containing the commits to have any upstream relationship, but it helps to think of one as a branch and the other as its upstream, the ahead and behind values will be what git would report for the branches.

	The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`upstream`	`GgitOId`
	The commit for upstream.

	Number of unique from commits in `upstream`.
	The argument will be set by the function.
`behind`	`gsize*`
	Number of unique from commits in `local`.
	The argument will be set by the function.

	The return location for a `GError*`, or `NULL`.
