= Trac Version Control System API =

Trac uses a thin abstraction layer between the Trac application code and the code that accesses concrete version control systems. This layer can be found in the [source:/trunk/trac/versioncontrol/main.py#latest trac.versioncontrol] package.

== Accessing the Version Vontrol System ==

You can get access to a concrete {{{Repository}}} implementation using the {{{get_repository()}}} method of the {{{Environment}}} object:
{{{
#!python
from trac.env import Environment

env = Environment('/path/to/projenv')
repos = env.get_repository()
try:
    # Do whatever you like with the repository object here
finally:
    repos.close()
}}}
