our freshly built Git without installing; that’s the method we’ll be using in
this tutorial.</p>

of invocation during users' typical daily workflow.</p>

it’s fine to base your work on <code>master</code>. However, in the future for bugfixes,
etc., you should check that document and base it on the appropriate branch.</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>For the purposes of this document, we will base all our work on the <code>master</code>

<h3 id="add-new-command"><a class="anchor" href="#add-new-command"></a>Adding a New Command</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Lots of the subcommands are written as builtins, which means they are
implemented in C and compiled into the main <code>git</code> executable. Implementing the
very simple <code>psuh</code> command as a built-in will demonstrate the structure of the
codebase, the internal API, and the process of working together as a contributor
with the reviewers and maintainer to integrate this change into the system.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Built-in subcommands are typically implemented in a function named "cmd_"
followed by the name of the subcommand, in a source file named after the
subcommand and contained within <code>builtin/</code>. So it makes sense to implement your
command in <code>builtin/psuh.c</code>. Create that file, and within it, write the entry
point for your command in a function matching the style and signature:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>int cmd_psuh(int argc UNUSED, const char **argv UNUSED,
const char *prefix UNUSED, struct repository *repo UNUSED)</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A few things to note:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>A subcommand implementation takes its command line arguments
in <code>int</code> <code>argc</code> + <code>const</code> <code>char</code> <code>**argv</code>, like <code>main</code>() would.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>It also takes two extra parameters, <code>prefix</code> and <code>repo</code>. What
they mean will not be discussed until much later.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Because this first example will not use any of the parameters,
your compiler will give warnings on unused parameters. As the
list of these four parameters is mandated by the API to add
new built-in commands, you cannot omit them. Instead, you add
<code>UNUSED</code> to each of them to tell the compiler that you <strong>know</strong>
you are not (yet) using it.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>We’ll also need to add the declaration of psuh; open up <code>builtin.h</code>, find the
declaration for <code>cmd_pull</code>, and add a new line for <code>psuh</code> immediately before it,
in order to keep the declarations alphabetically sorted:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>int cmd_psuh(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix, struct repository *repo);</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Be sure to #include "builtin.<code>h</code>" in your <code>psuh.c</code>. You’ll also need to
#include "gettext.<code>h</code>" to use functions related to printing output text.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Go ahead and add some throwaway printf to the <code>cmd_psuh</code> function. This is a
decent starting point as we can now add build rules and register the command.</p>
</div>
<div class="admonitionblock note">
<table>
<tr>
<td class="icon">
<div class="title">Note</div>
</td>
<td class="content">
Your throwaway text, as well as much of the text you will be adding over
the course of this tutorial, is user-facing. That means it needs to be
localizable. Take a look at <code>po/README</code> under "Marking strings for translation".
Throughout the tutorial, we will mark strings for translation as necessary; you
should also do so when writing your user-facing commands in the future.

<div class="paragraph">
<p>Let’s try to build it. Open <code>Makefile</code>, find where <code>builtin/pull.o</code> is added
to <code>BUILTIN_OBJS</code>, and add <code>builtin/psuh.o</code> in the same way next to it in
alphabetical order. Once you’ve done so, move to the top-level directory and
build simply with <code>make</code>. Also add the <code>DEVELOPER=1</code> variable to turn on
some additional warnings:</p>

When you are developing the Git project, it’s preferred that you use the

it off, but it’s a good idea to mention the problem to the mailing list.

<p>Great, now your new command builds happily on its own. But nobody invokes it.
Let’s change that.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The list of commands lives in <code>git.c</code>. We can register a new command by adding
a <code>cmd_struct</code> to the <code>commands</code>[] array. <code>struct</code> <code>cmd_struct</code> takes a string
with the command name, a function pointer to the command implementation, and a
setup option flag. For now, let’s keep mimicking <code>push</code>. Find the line where
<code>cmd_push</code> is registered, copy it, and modify it for <code>cmd_psuh</code>, placing the new
line in alphabetical order (immediately before <code>cmd_pull</code>).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The options are documented in <code>builtin.h</code> under "Adding a new built-in." Since
we hope to print some data about the user’s current workspace context later,
we need a Git directory, so choose <code>RUN_SETUP</code> as your only option.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Go ahead and build again. You should see a clean build, so let’s kick the tires
and see if it works. There’s a binary you can use to test with in the
<code>bin-wrappers</code> directory.</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ ./bin-wrappers/git psuh</pre>

<p>Check it out! You’ve got a command! Nice work! Let’s commit this.</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p><code>git</code> <code>status</code> reveals modified <code>Makefile</code>, <code>builtin.h</code>, and <code>git.c</code> as well as
untracked <code>builtin/psuh.c</code> and <code>git-psuh</code>. First, let’s take care of the binary,
which should be ignored. Open .<code>gitignore</code> in your editor, find <code>/git-pull</code>, and
add an entry for your new command in alphabetical order:</p>

<pre>psuh: add a built-in by popular demand
Internal metrics indicate this is a command many users expect to be
present. So here's an implementation to help drive customer
satisfaction and engagement: a pony which doubtfully greets the user,
or, a Pony Saying "Um, Hello" (PSUH).
This commit message is intentionally formatted to 72 columns per line,
starts with a single line as "commit message subject" that is written as
if to command the codebase to do something (add this, teach a command
that). The body of the message is designed to add information about the
commit that is not readily deduced from reading the associated diff,
such as answering the question "why?".

<div class="paragraph">
<p>Go ahead and inspect your new commit with <code>git</code> <code>show</code>. "psuh:" indicates you
have modified mainly the <code>psuh</code> command. The subject line gives readers an idea
of what you’ve changed. The sign-off line (<code>-s</code>) indicates that you agree to
the Developer’s Certificate of Origin 1.1 (see the
<code>Documentation/SubmittingPatches</code> [[dco]] header).</p>

<h3 id="implementation"><a class="anchor" href="#implementation"></a>Implementation</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It’s probably useful to do at least something besides printing out a string.
Let’s start by having a look at everything we get.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Modify your <code>cmd_psuh</code> implementation to dump the args you’re passed,
keeping existing <code>printf</code>() calls in place; because the args are now
used, remove the <code>UNUSED</code> macro from them:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> int i;
...
printf(Q_("Your args (there is %d):\n",
"Your args (there are %d):\n",
argc),
argc);
for (i = 0; i < argc; i++)
printf("%d: %s\n", i, argv[i]);
printf(_("Your current working directory:\n<top-level>%s%s\n"),
prefix ? "/" : "", prefix ? prefix : "");</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Build and try it. As you may expect, there’s pretty much just whatever we give
on the command line, including the name of our command. (If <code>prefix</code> is empty
for you, try <code>cd</code> <code>Documentation/</code> && <code>..</code><code>/bin-wrappers/git</code> <code>psuh</code>). That’s not so
helpful. So what other context can we get?</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Add a line to #include "config.<code>h</code>" and #include "repository.<code>h</code>".
Then, add the following bits to the function body:
function body:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> const char *cfg_name;
...
repo_config(repo, git_default_config, NULL);
if (repo_config_get_string_tmp(repo, "user.name", &cfg_name))
printf(_("No name is found in config\n"));
else
printf(_("Your name: %s\n"), cfg_name);</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><code>repo_config</code>() will grab the configuration from config files known to Git and
apply standard precedence rules. <code>repo_config_get_string_tmp</code>() will look up
a specific key ("user.name") and give you the value. There are a number of
single-key lookup functions like this one; you can see them all (and more info
about how to use <code>repo_config</code>()) in <code>Documentation/technical/api-config.adoc</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You should see that the name printed matches the one you see when you run:</p>

<div class="content">
<pre>$ git config --get user.name</pre>

<p>Still, it’d be nice to know what the user’s working context is like. Let’s see
if we can print the name of the user’s current branch. We can mimic the
<code>git</code> <code>status</code> implementation; the printer is located in <code>wt-status.c</code> and we can
see that the branch is held in a <code>struct</code> <code>wt_status</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><code>wt_status_print</code>() gets invoked by <code>cmd_status</code>() in <code>builtin/commit.c</code>.
Looking at that implementation we see the status config being populated like so:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>status_init_config(&s, git_status_config);</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>But as we drill down, we can find that <code>status_init_config</code>() wraps a call
to <code>repo_config</code>(). Let’s modify the code we wrote in the previous commit.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Be sure to include the header to allow you to use <code>struct</code> <code>wt_status</code>:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>#include "wt-status.h"</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Then modify your <code>cmd_psuh</code> implementation to declare your <code>struct</code> <code>wt_status</code>,
prepare it, and print its contents:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> struct wt_status status;
...
wt_status_prepare(repo, &status);
repo_config(repo, git_default_config, &status);
...
printf(_("Your current branch: %s\n"), status.branch);</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Run it again. Check it out - here’s the (verbose) name of your current branch!</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Let’s commit this as well.</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git add builtin/psuh.c
$ git commit -sm "psuh: print the current branch"</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Now let’s see if we can get some info about a specific commit.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Luckily, there are some helpers for us here. <code>commit.h</code> has a function called
