I downloaded the windows version in Checks, and successfully loaded the plugin, commited changes and pushed it to my repo.

(I don't familiar with rules so I just gonna choose "Approve" because I really want 4.1 to be supported, maybe it requires testing on all the platforms?)

omg I wrote a lot then forgot the review checkbox

Is this update compatible with Godot 4.2 as well as 4.1?
(At this time, the latest 4.2 is 4.2-dev3.)

It does not, at least here. breaks on godot-git-plugin/src/gdlibrary.cpp:22:50: error: 'GDExtensionInterfaceGetProcAddress' does not name a type

Update: I frankenstein'd the latest godot-cpp into this PR, and it got past the build error. godot-cpp included is from 4.1 and is not compatible with 4.2.dev3.

It now breaks on not finding libssl.la

Just downloaded the macos universal artifact from Checks and opened the test project (as well as tried to import on a fresh project). Enabling the add on errors with

ERROR: Attempt to open script 'res://addons/godot-git-plugin/godot-git-plugin.gd' resulted in error 'File not found'.

The check seems to have passed which is confusing. That file does indeed not exist in the artifact.

Ah nevermind - just read #183. I can now confirm the commit tab pops up and works for macos

[jasonlessenich]

What's the state of this? Can this already be used?

^ Echoing the above, would love to be able to use this plugin

This was approved by @paddy-exe on the Godot Contributors Chat.

Note that a tagged release with this commit included still needs to be made, so that official downloads support Godot 4.1 and later. In the meantime, you can download the current stable release and replace the native library with this PR's artifacts, which I've reuploaded for future reference:

• Windows: libgit_plugin.windows.x86_64.editor.dll-c89b1f54a62707d96143ee336a3e0ee6b8ccb40e.zip
• macOS: libgit_plugin.macos.universal.editor.dylib-c89b1f54a62707d96143ee336a3e0ee6b8ccb40e.zip
• Linux: libgit_plugin.linux.x86_64.editor.so-c89b1f54a62707d96143ee336a3e0ee6b8ccb40e.zip

I briefly tested v3.0.1 of this plugin on Linux, using the .zip provided above, with Godot 4.1.2-rc1 and 4.2-dev6, and did not find any new issues.

I did have this problem, but I first encountered that with v3.0.0.

Using:
Godot v4.1.2.stable - Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS (Focal Fossa) - X11 - Vulkan (Forward+) - dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU () - AMD Ryzen 5 5600H with Radeon Graphics (12 Threads)

Downloading and importing:
libgit_plugin.linux.x86_64.editor.so-c89b1f54a62707d96143ee336a3e0ee6b8ccb40e.zip

Still gives me:

  Attempt to open script 'res://addons/godot-git-plugin/godot-git-plugin.gd' resulted in error 'File not found'.
  Failed loading resource: res://addons/godot-git-plugin/godot-git-plugin.gd. Make sure resources have been imported by opening the project in the editor at least once.

That's not an error. That message is displayed if you attempt to enable the plugin in Project Settings. With this plugin, you don't do that.

Note: you do NOT need to manually enable the plugin in the Project > Project Settings > Plugins tab. In fact, you can't; that tab is for script-based plugins, GDExtension plugins, like this one, will be loaded automatically.

Wiki/Installation

(I think that the Godot editor needs a fix for this situation. It's confusing to users.)
