    Isomorphic-git is a full implementation of the Git version control system written in JavaScript. It serves as a programmatic client library that allows developers to perform core version control operations without requiring a system-level Git binary installation. The library is designed as an isomorphic codebase, meaning it runs identically across both client-side web browser environments and server-side Node.js runtimes. It achieves this by using a filesystem-agnostic storage model and a pure JavaScript implementation of the Git core logic and the Smart HTTP protocol. The project covers a c
