我如何使用rugged创建和提交文件，例如从命令行？

Question

i'm trying to use rugged to do something pretty simple: create and commit a file, leaving the repository in the same state as doing:

git init
echo "blah blah blah" > blah.txt
git add blah.txt
git commit -m "write blah.txt"

which leaves git status printing

On branch master
nothing to commit, working directory clean

i'm using code adapted from the rugged repo's readme , which boils down to:

name = "blah.txt"
repo = Rugged::Repository.init_at dir

File.open File.join(dir, name), 'w' do |f|
  f.write content
end

oid = Rugged::Blob.from_workdir repo, name
index = repo.index

index.add(:path => name, :oid => oid, :mode => 0100644)

options = {}
options[:tree] = index.write_tree(repo)

options[:author] = {  :email => "testuser@github.com",
                      :name => 'Test Author',
                      :time => Time.now }
options[:committer] = { :email => "testuser@github.com",
                        :name => 'Test Author',
                        :time => Time.now }
options[:message] =  "write #{ name }"
options[:parents] = repo.empty? ? [] : [ repo.head.target ].compact
options[:update_ref] = 'HEAD'

commit = Rugged::Commit.create(repo, options)

this seems to leave the repository in the right state, but the working dir in a weird place, with git status printing

On branch master
Changes to be committed:
  (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)

    deleted:    blah.txt

Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

    blah.txt

i don't understand what git thinks is happening at this point ( blah.txt is staged for delete?). executing git reset --hard puts the working dir back in the desired state from what i can tell.

thanks in advance for the help.

You've forgotten to save your changes to the index. You've updated the reference to point to the new commit, but the index is unchanged (as you never call Index#write ), so as far as git is concerned the deletion is staged because the file is not in the index, just as if you had run git rm blah.txt .
