Execute git command from Python script

git_from_python_script.py

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
from os import path

git_command = ['/usr/bin/git', 'status']
repository  = path.dirname('/path/to/dir/') 

git_query = Popen(git_command, cwd=repository, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
(git_status, error) = git_query.communicate()
if git_query.poll() == 0:
   # Do stuff

nice

Thanks for this !

Thanks!

This was really helpful. I could create a script to completed push the code if there is any untracked files in my local with this hint

Hello Nathania,

I made a git command in python, http://goo.gl/JUHJjc would you like to have some comments on it, I am going to do a version using gitPython API which i discovered after I was all done with the one using subprocess, however still debating which approach is better !

The link doesn't work anymore, could you please provide another one?
