Getting Started

Learn how to install and set up l0-git in your workspace.

Installation

Pre-built Binaries

The recommended way to install l0-git is to download the latest release for your platform from the GitHub Releases page.

1. Download the archive for your OS and architecture.
2. Extract the lgit binary.
3. Move it to a directory in your PATH (e.g., /usr/local/bin or ~/.local/bin).

From Source

If you have Go installed, you can build l0-git from source:

git clone https://github.com/fabriziosalmi/l0-git.git
cd l0-git
make build

This will produce the lgit binary in the server/ directory.

VS Code Extension

For the best experience, install the l0-git VS Code extension:

1. Open VS Code.
2. Go to the Extensions view (Ctrl+Shift+X).
3. Search for l0-git and install it.

Alternatively, you can install the .vsix file from the releases page:

code --install-extension l0-git-<version>.vsix

Running Your First Scan

Once installed, you can run a scan against your project:

lgit check .

To see the findings:

lgit list

Configuration

l0-git works out of the box, but you can customize it by creating a .l0git.json file in your project root. See the Configuration guide for details.
