There are several places where users may want to specify the type of object IDs (sha1 or sha256) that should be used, for example, when dealing with repositories, indexes, etc. However, given that sha256 support remains disappointingly uncommon in the wild, we should avoid hard API breaks when possible. Instead, update these APIs to have an "extended" format (eg, `git_odb_open_ext`) that provides an options structure with oid type information. This allows callers who do care about sha256 to use it, and callers who do not to avoid gratuitous API breakage.
libgit2 examples
These examples are a mixture of basic emulation of core Git command line functions and simple snippets demonstrating libgit2 API usage (for use with Docurium). As a whole, they are not vetted carefully for bugs, error handling, and cross-platform compatibility in the same manner as the rest of the code in libgit2, so copy with caution.
That being said, you are welcome to copy code from these examples as desired when using libgit2. They have been released to the public domain, so there are no restrictions on their use.
