About

Anyvc is a library to abstract common vcs operations. It was born in an effort to enhance vcs operations in PIDA.

The current version is mainly tailored to working with the working directories of the different vcs’s and performing operations like adding/renaming/moving files, showing differences to the current commit and creating new commits.

It’s still in the early stages of development, but has already proved its practical value in the version control service of PIDA.

Future versions will gradually expand the scope from just workdir to interacting with history as well as managing repositories and branches.

Due to the differences in the vcs’s not all operations are available on all vcs’s, the abstraction will degrade/warn/error in those cases.
