How to call other clis

[oovm]

How to call other command line tools in the shell? Similar to execSync.

For example, I want to perform some git operations.

Does this mean I need a pure wasm git client?

At this time, there is no way to do this within wasi-cli. Someone would need to make a proposal for an addition to the API.

It should be possible to add such an interface:

@since(version = 0.3.0)
interface exec {
    @since(version = 0.3.0)
    @unstable(feature = cli-child-process)
    exec: func(command: string) -> result;

    @since(version = 0.3.0)
    @unstable(feature = cli-child-process)
    record exec-options {

    }

    @since(version = 0.3.0)
    @unstable(feature = cli-child-process)
    exec-with-options: func(command: string, options: exec-options) -> result;
}

I'm not familiar with cross-platform, what options are common to all platforms?
