No.  However you can look at jgit if you are programming in Java.
In Ruby look up Grit (a wrapper around the plumbing commands), or
the pure-Ruby implementation of Git (I forget its name).

Anything else, use the plumbing commands and just fork+exec what
you need.  Many of them have a -z flag to use null termination
on records, making it easier (and safer) to slurp data that may
contain LFs.

The Ruby library Grit actually does a lot of stuff in pure ruby rather
than forking, but you also might want to take a look at libgitcore:

http://git.codethink.co.uk/?p=git;a=shortlog;h=libgitcore

The codethink guys have stripped and rewritten a bunch of git to
behave more like a linkable library, and I think they have a python
binding as an example.
