// Require in NodeGit, since we want to use the local copy, we're using a

// relative path. In your project, you will use:

// var NodeGit = require("nodegit");

var NodeGit = require("../../../");

// Using the `clone` method from the `Git.Clone` module, bring down the NodeGit

// test repository from GitHub.

var cloneURL = "https://github.com/nodegit/test";

// Ensure that the `tmp` directory is local to this file and not the CWD.

var localPath = require("path").join(__dirname, "tmp");

// Simple object to store clone options.

var cloneOptions = {};

// This is a required callback for OS X machines. There is a known issue

// with libgit2 being able to verify certificates from GitHub.

cloneOptions.remoteCallbacks = {

certificateCheck: function() { return 1; }

};

// Invoke the clone operation and store the returned Promise.

var cloneRepository = NodeGit.Clone(cloneURL, localPath, cloneOptions);

// If the repository already exists, the clone above will fail. You can simply

// open the repository in this case to continue execution.

var errorAndAttemptOpen = function() {

return NodeGit.Repository.open(localPath);

};

// Once the repository has been cloned or opened, you can work with a returned

// `Git.Repository` instance.
