I am making use of repos in databricks and am trying to reference the current git branch from within the notebook session.
For example:
from pygit2 import Repository
repo = Repository('/Workspace/Repos/user@domain/repository')
The code above throws an error stating that the repository cannot be found. Similar errors are thrown with GitPython as well. It seems to me that DataBricks Repos are configured in a way that means these packages cannot recognise them.
Does anyone have any experience of this?
Thanks

You cannot use this as far as i know, but you can put a workaround in a notebook if you are calling code from your repo via a notebook:
repo_path = "/Repos/xyz_repo_path/xyz_repo_name"
repo_path_fs = "/Workspace" + repo_path
repo_branch = "main"
def checkRepoInfo():
nb_context= json.loads(dbutils.notebook.entry_point.getDbutils().notebook().getContext().toJson())
api_url = nb_context['extraContext']['api_url']
api_token = nb_context['extraContext']['api_token']
db_repo_data = requests.get(f"{api_url}/api/2.0/repos", headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_token}"}).json()
for db_repo in db_repo_data["repos"]:
db_repo_id = db_repo["id"]
db_repo_path = db_repo["path"]
db_repo_branch = db_repo["branch"]
db_repo_head_commit = db_repo["head_commit_id"]
if db_repo["path"] == repo_path:
print ("Git commit info: ID: {} | Path: {} | Branch: {} | Commit: {}".format(db_repo_id, db_repo_path, db_repo_branch ,db_repo_head_commit))
assert db_repo_branch == repo_branch
checkRepoInfo()

I'm having the same issue. I couldn't see anything in the documentation that @Kaniz Fatma posted which answers this question either.
It looks like the `.git/` subdirectory isn't actually present at the top level of the repo in databricks, which seems strange. I don't really understand why that would be and how git works in databricks without the `.git/` subdir ...

Agreed, it seems very odd. @Kaniz Fatma, are you able to assist any further on this? Is there somewhere in the linked documentation in particular that you believe would be helpful?
