Manage git repo from node.js application

Question

I need to manage a git repository from a Node.js application. Is there a git wrapper library or something that lets me call git functions high level and interpret the result without having to parse the console output?

nodegit is a binding for libgit2, does it mean I won't need git installed in the system where the app is running? – Maikel Ruiz Oct 30 '15 at 22:14
If you have gitlib2 installed thats enough – Amey Jadiye Oct 31 '15 at 06:09
