Description
libgit2.org lists nodegit as a Node.js binding of libgit2. However, the last stable release of nodegit is from 2020, there are no prebuilt binaries for any supported Node.js version anymore (only Node 16), and it depends on the long-deprecated "request" library that has security vulnerabilities. There are several issues asking about the project state without replies from the maintainers.
Developers looking for a library to use Git in Node.js will likely just get frustrated when they start with using Node.js.
