Hi. We are looking to embed version control features into our commercially licensed proprietary product. We haven’t made a decision on which technology yet but Git would be a popular choice. I’ve read ‘Appendix B: Embedding Git in your applications’ on the website and determined that our choices would be either to invoke the Git command line tools or integrate with libgit2. In theory, the command line tools should be easier to integrate with and we would rely on the user’s Git install rather than bundling the Git software. What I would like to know is if integrating with the command line tools would still fall foul of the GPLv2 license or if there is an exception like there is for libgit2. TIA Kevin
