git local concurrent access

Question

I'm writing a piece of code that wrap access to a git repository (it performs write/add/commits and finally pushes)

This application does concurrent access to the git repository (it's a web app, several processes are running in parallel).

I wonder if I should add some kind of locking (ie. mutex) on git operations or if several processes doing git add/commit in parallel is a safe operation

Answer 1

If you are wrapping the official git-client (what you -- regarding your comment -- do), you can rely on it and don't need to implement it yourself (once more). It already takes care, that the writing actions appears atomic.
