wrong-use-of-git database

wugdb is a Nushell module providing a tool for storing and retrieving structured Nushell data in a Git branch.

The data is stored in JSON files in a dedicated, unrelated (orphan) branch. A Git commit is generated each time the stored data is updated.

The commands provided are wugdb list, wugdb get, wugdb store, and wugdb drop. Each supports --help for more detail.

More details about the internals of wugdb are available in a blog post

This module works, but has minimal to no error handling, and is more of a proof of concept. Use in production is generally not recommended (unless you really want to).

The plural of wugdb is wugdbs.

Example

> use wugdb
> git init
> [ 1 2 3 ] | wugdb store first
