## API
### .gitToJs(pathToRepo, [options])
Returns a promise which resolves with a list of objects describing git commits on the current branch. `pathToRepo` is a string. `options` is an optional object with one property, `sinceCommit`, which is a commit hash. If `sinceCommit` is present, gitToJs will return logs for commits _after_ the commit specified.
```js
const { gitToJs } = require('git-parse');
const commitsPromise = gitToJs('path/to/repo/');
commitsPromise.then(commits => console.log(JSON.stringify(commits, null, 2)));
```
### .checkOutCommit(pathToRepo, commitHash, [options])
Checks a repository out to a given commit. `hash` is the commit hash. Options is an optional object with one property, `force`. `force` adds `--force` to the [underlying git checkout](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-checkout#git-checkout--f). Returns a promise.
### .gitPull(pathToRepo)
Runs 'git pull' on the repository at the given path. Returns a promise.
### .gitDiff(pathToRepo, commitHash1, [commitHash2], [file])
Returns a git diff given a path to the repo, a commit, an optional second commit, and an optional file path.
Returns a promise resolving with the diff as a string.
