Incompatible types when using esm

Currently the exposed types are not usable, when compiling typescript code as esm.

When importing this lib from esm, i need to write import * as simpleGit from 'simple-git';.

This will cause simpleGit.default to be the factory, which works. But the other enum types are not accessable as simpleGit.ResetMode, instead they are exported via simpleGit.default.ResetMode. Trying to use those will cause compilations issues.

The next release will contain #708 which enables the ES module imports in the same format as they would appear in TypeScript, ie:

import simpleGit, { ResetMode } from 'simple-git';

You can follow the release in #709

Hi, the latest version of simple-git is now available on npm, published with a major version bump as the packaging has changed to allow for both importing esm and requiring commonjs.

There are very few usage changes, so there should be no code change required in order to upgrade from v2.x to v3.x (unless you were using deprecated APIs that had been logging warnings to the console), or were importing from a path other than just simple-git.

There are notes for the release available in https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/tree/repo-v3.0.3#release-history and examples for ways to import the library in https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/tree/repo-v3.0.3#usage

Please do raise a new issue if you are having any problems using the new version, thanks.
