49 * Base class to support constructing a {@link Repository}.
50 * <p>
51 * Applications must set one of {@link #setGitDir(File)} or
52 * {@link #setWorkTree(File)}, or use {@link #readEnvironment()} or
53 * {@link #findGitDir()} in order to configure the minimum property set
54 * necessary to open a repository.
55 * <p>
56 * Single repository applications trying to be compatible with other Git
57 * implementations are encouraged to use a model such as:
59 * <pre>
60 * new RepositoryBuilder() //
61 * .setGitDir(gitDirArgument) // --git-dir if supplied, no-op if null
62 * .readEnviroment() // scan environment GIT_* variables
63 * .findGitDir() // scan up the file system tree
64 * .build()
65 * </pre>
67 * @see FileRepositoryBuilder
69 public class RepositoryBuilder extends
70 BaseRepositoryBuilder<RepositoryBuilder, Repository> {
71 // Empty implementation, everything is inherited.
