getattr¶

_AsyncGit.__getattr__(item: str) → Union[Callable[[Any, Any, Any, Any, Any], Coroutine], callable, Any][source]¶

If an attribute doesn’t exist, this method will return a awaitable() function that simply calls git() with the attribute name as the first argument, followed by any additional positional/keyword arguments.

Since a lot of git commands have - in their name, but Python doesn’t support attributes containing -, non-existent attributes will have _ replaced with - when calling git() with their name.

For example, git.count_objects('-v') would become git count-objects -v

This allows most unimplemented git sub-commands to function when called as a method, for example, at the current point in time, neither the describe command, nor count-objects are implemented as a method, but both can still be called synchronously or asynchronously and it will work:

>>> from privex.helpers import Git
>>> g = Git()
>>> g.describe('--tags')
'2.14.0-1-g8418c96'
>>> await g.describe('--tags')
'2.14.0-1-g8418c96'
>>> g.count_objects()
'2061 objects, 8880 kilobytes'
>>> await g.count_objects()
'2061 objects, 8880 kilobytes'
