Component git_repository

[aschaeffer]

Goal

Git repositories are useful for

• Assets (maps, textures, 3D models, sound effects, soundtracks, ...)
• Flows (game modes or mechanics useful for several game modes, map logics, particle effect control, editor logics / automation, terrain generation)
• Plugins (Behaviour Implementations as WebAssembly .wasm)

This is a building block for further implementation (other Components) on top:

• asset repository indexing, ...
• flow repository indexing, fetching/updating flows from the repository, flow management, uploading flows
• plugin updating, reloading, ...
