Is a callback required for 0.17.1?

[iamwilhelm]

Older versions of gitteh had an optional callback, like for openRepository().

However, just installing gitteh 0.17.1 on node 0.8.25, it seems like openRepository() now requires a callback:

coffee> repo = gitteh.openRepository("path/to/repo.git")
Error: Not enough arguments.

However, the documentation doesn't reflect this requirement. I'm wondering, is this a bug, or is the documentation now incorrect?

@iamwilhelm Documentation is now fairly out of date, a new version of it will be coming soonish.

To answer you question though - callbacks are now mandatory, as the blocking (sync) code has been entirely removed from the bindings to reduce complexity. gitteh is now entirely asynchronous.

I've created #53 as a result of this issue. Closing this one as it's answered!

Alright! Glad to see that the npm package compiles and you're still making headway. Thanks for maintaining!
