git-cz
Semantic Git commits
git-cz is a command-line tool designed to guide developers in writing structured, conventional commits. Rather than manually typing commit messages, this tool prompts you to select commit types, scopes, and write descriptions according to a defined format. It integrates with the popular commitizen ecosystem so that when you run npx git-cz or similar, you are prompted through a workflow instead of free-form message. The project emphasises consistency and readability in commit history, helping teams enforce semantic or conventional commit message formats. It supports custom configuration (for example via a changelog.config.js file) so you can adapt the prompts or types to your project’s conventions. Because it is open source (licensed under Unlicense) it can be freely integrated within CI pipelines or commit hooks to standardise message formats. -

git-delete-merged-branches
Command-line tool to delete merged Git branches
A convenient command-line tool helping you keep repositories clean. Supports deletion of both local and remote branches. Detects multiple forms of de-facto merges (rebase merges, squash merges (needs --effort=3), single or range cherry-picks… leveraging git cherry). Supports workflows with multiple release branches, e.g. only delete branches that have been merged to all of master, dev and staging. Quick interactive configuration. Provider agnostic: Works with GitHub, GitLab, Gitea and any other Git hosting. Takes safety seriously. Deletion is a sharp knife that requires care. While git reflog would have your back in most cases, git-delete-merged-branches takes safety seriously. git push is used with --force-with-lease so if the server and you have a different understanding of that branch, it is not deleted. There is no use of os.system or shell code to go wrong. -

git-imerge
Incremental merge for git
Perform a merge between two branches incrementally. If conflicts are encountered, figure out exactly which pairs of commits conflict, and present the user with one pairwise conflict at a time for resolution. Reduce the pain of resolving merge conflicts to its unavoidable minimum, by finding and presenting the smallest possible conflicts: those between the changes introduced by one commit from each branch. Allow a merge to be saved, tested, interrupted, published, and collaborated on while it is in progress. Multiple incremental merges can be in progress at the same time. Each incremental merge has a name, and its progress is recorded in the Git repository as references under refs/imerge/NAME. The current state of an incremental merge can be visualized using the diagram command. An incremental merge can be interrupted and resumed arbitrarily, or even pushed to a server to allow somebody else to work on it. -

git-messenger.vim
Vim and Neovim plugin to reveal the commit messages
git-messenger.vim is a Vim and Neovim plugin that quickly reveals the Git commit message behind the line under the cursor. It helps developers understand why a line was added or changed without leaving the editor. The plugin shows the latest related commit in a popup window, floating window, or preview window depending on the editor version. If the most recent commit is not enough, users can explore older commits from the same interface. It can also show the diff for a selected commit, including options for unified and word diffs. This makes it useful when reading unfamiliar code, reviewing history, or debugging changes with context from version control. -

git-notify
Communicate important updates to your team via git commit messages
Communicate important updates to your team via git commit messages. Sometimes you need to communicate changes to other developers on your project. In a small team, a Slack message works okay, but in larger teams and distributed organizations (such as open-source projects), reaching everyone can be a pain. git-notify allows you to embed announcements into your git commit messages. And display them to another developer on a machine, far far away. Just add "git-notify:" to your git commit message, and anything that follows will be displayed when another developer pulls that commit, or switches from a branch that does not contain that commit to one that does. If you're using a merge or squash commit strategy on GitHub, you can also add them to the extended commit message when landing a PR. git-notify will display a message for every "git-notify:" prefix it finds in the commit log that was just pulled/merged/rebased/checked out. -

git-peek
git repo to local editor instantly
git peek is the fastest way to open a remote git repository in your local text editor. Use it when you want to browse or search other people's code with your own editor. Pass git peek a git repository or a github link, and it will quickly fetch and open it in your local editor. It stores the repository in a temporary directory and deletes it when you close the editor or git peek. If you don't pass git peek input, it will let you search Github repositories and show trending repositories. If you paste a link to a file on GitHub, it will quickly open the file in your local editor. If you pass it a GitHub repository, it fetches a tarball instead of using git and decompresses it while downloading it (streaming). From unscientific benchmarks, this is about 2x faster than cloning. While downloading & decompressing the tarball, it also downloads the specific file linked to (or the README.md) via JSDelivr's CDN. -

git-recall
An interactive way to peruse your git history from the terminal
An interactive way to peruse your git history from the terminal. git-recall is a simple tool that allows you to easily go through your commits and check what you or other contributors in your team did. It doesn't aim to be a replacement for the git log command, but just to be a convenient way to recall what you've done from your terminal. You can install it by simply copying the git-recall script into any existing path (e.g. /usr/local/bin) or create your own directory and add it to the PATH variable. Once the commits are displayed, you can use either the arrow keys or j/k to switch between commits, press TAB or e to expand/reduce the commit's diff or q to quit. -

git-reflow
Reflow automatically creates pull requests
Reflow automatically creates pull requests, ensures the code review is approved, and squash merges finished branches to master with a great commit message template. Enforce code reviews across your team. Know that your entire team delivers code the same way. Reduce the knowledge needed to deliver great code. Have a commit history that's clean and actually usable. Revert features with ease (if needed). Work with diverse teams with less worry about different processes. Stop searching for other git workflows. Reflow covers 90% of your needs without junk you'll never use. Git-reflow's default process isn't meant to fit every team, which is why we've introduced Custom Workflows. With a custom workflow, you can add hooks to be run before, or after any command. Use one of our pre-configured workflows as a basis for your own. -

git-remote-dropbox
A transparent bridge between Git and Dropbox
git-remote-dropbox is a Git remote helper that lets Dropbox act like a real Git remote. It provides a transparent bridge between Git and a Dropbox folder or shared Dropbox folder. After installation and login, users can clone from or push to remote URLs that use the dropbox scheme. The helper preserves traditional Git remote guarantees, including atomic behavior even when multiple people operate on the repository. It can automatically create the repository directory the first time a user pushes. It also includes a git dropbox management tool for authentication, repository management, app-folder access, and multiple Dropbox accounts. -

git-secret
A bash-tool to store your private data inside a git repository
There’s a well-known issue with deploying and configuring software on servers: generally, you have to store your private data (such as database passwords, application secret-keys, OAuth secret keys, etc) outside of the git repository. If you do choose to store these secrets unencrypted in your git repo, even if the repository is private, it is a security risk to copy the secrets everywhere you check out your repo. These files are not version controlled. Filenames, locations, and passwords change from time to time, or new information appears, and other information is removed. When secrets are stored separately from your repo, you can not tell for sure which version of the configuration file was used with each commit or deploy. When building the automated deployment system there will be one extra step: download and place these secret-configuration files where they need to be. This also means you have to maintain extra secure servers where all your secrets are stored. -

git-secrets
Prevents you from committing secrets and credentials into git
git-secrets is a Git extension that helps prevent secrets—API keys, credentials, tokens, private keys—from being accidentally committed into version control. It works by applying configurable regular-expression patterns over commit contents (and merge history) and rejecting commits or merges that violate the policy. The tool includes hooks that integrate into git commit and git merge, as well as commands to list, add, or remove secret patterns, and to scan existing history for leaks. Teams often deploy it as part of their developer toolchain to enforce a security guardrail: you catch leaks early rather than discovering them later. It is also often used in CI pipelines or continuous code quality checks to detect in-flight vulnerabilities. While git-secrets is not a full secrets management system, it plays a key role in defense-in-depth by preventing accidental exposure in source. -

git-sizer
Compute various size metrics for a Git repository
git-sizer computes various size metrics for a local Git repository, flagging those that might cause you problems or inconvenience. Is the repository too big overall? Ideally, Git repositories should be under 1 GiB, and (without special handling) they start to get unwieldy over 5 GiB. Big repositories take a long time to clone and repack, and take a lot of disk space. Avoid storing generated files (e.g., compiler output, JAR files) in Git. It would be better to regenerate them when necessary, or store them in a package registry or even a fileserver. Avoid storing large media assets in Git. You might want to look into Git-LFS or git-annex, which allow you to version your media assets in Git while actually storing them outside of your repository. Avoid storing file archives (e.g., ZIP files, tarballs) in Git, especially if compressed. Different versions of such files don't delta well against each other, so Git can't store them efficiently. -

git-sketch-plugin
A Git client generating pretty diffs built right into Sketch
A Git client generating pretty diffs built right into Sketch. A Git client built right into Sketch. The plugin really improves the review process by exporting an image for every part of the design. Every member of the team can quickly see what the next iteration will change through Github’s interface. Each step of the design process is now documented. Newcomers are able to understand how we ended up with the current iteration and why we went with some options and not others. Create a new branch when you start working on a new feature. Work normally on your design. Save the file. Commit the changes with a meaningful message describing them. The plugin will extract the artboards in your file in order to show the differences easily. Push your changes to the remote. Create a pull request from your branch to the master branch. Voila. Your co-workers can review the changes, comment on them and approve them. Once approved, merge the pull request. -

git-tfs
A Git/TFS bridge, similar to git-svn
git-tfs is a two-way bridge between TFS (Team Foundation Server) and git, similar to git-svn. It fetches TFS commits into a git repository, and lets you push your updates back to TFS. git-tfs is a two-way bridge between TFS and git, similar to git-svn. If the build fails to build some GitTfs.Vs201x projects, just unload in Visual Studio all the projects you are not interested in to be able to build and use your own version. You could also install, the Team Foundation Server Object Model for Tfs 2012 (chocolatey) and Tfs 2013 (chocolatey). -

git-toolbelt
A suite of useful Git commands that aid with scripting
git-toolbelt is a collection of practical Git helper commands for daily command-line work and scripting. It adds small utilities that simplify common repository tasks that are possible with Git but annoying to type repeatedly. The project includes commands for creating WIP savepoint commits, listing modified files, updating many repositories, and inspecting local or remote branch state. It is designed for developers who already use Git heavily and want a faster workflow around repetitive operations. The tools are intentionally lightweight and shell-friendly, so they fit naturally into terminal aliases, scripts, and editor integrations. Its main value is turning frequent Git chores into short, readable commands. -

gitfs
Version controlled file system
gitfs is a FUSE file system that fully integrates with git. You can mount a remote repository's branch locally, and any subsequent changes made to the files will be automatically committed to the remote. gitfs was developed by the awesome engineering team at Presslabs, a Managed WordPress Hosting provider. gitfs was designed to bring the full powers of git to everyone, no matter how little they know about versioning. A user can mount any repository and all their changes will be automatically converted into commits. gitfs will also expose the history of the branch you're currently working on by simulating snapshots of every commit. gitfs is useful in places where you want to keep track of all your files, but at the same time you don't have the possibility of organizing everything into commits yourself. A FUSE filesystem for git repositories, with local cache. We provide packages for the major Ubuntu releases and MacOS. -

github-changelog-generator
Automatically generate change log from your tags, issues, labels, etc.
Automatically generate change log from your tags, issues, labels and pull requests on GitHub. Fully automated changelog generation - This gem generates a changelog file based on tags, issues and merged pull requests (and splits them into separate lists according to labels) from octocat: GitHub. What’s the point of a changelog? To make it easier for users and contributors to see precisely what notable changes have been made between each release (or version) of the project. Why should I care? Because software tools are for people. "Changelogs make it easier for users and contributors to see precisely what notable changes have been made between each release (or version) of the project." Using Docker is an alternative to installing Ruby and the gem. -

gitin
commit/branch/workdir explorer for git
gitin is a minimalist tool that lets you explore a git repository from the command line. You can search from commits, inspect individual files and changes in the commits. It is an alternative and interactive way to explore the commit history. Also, you can explore your current state by investigating diffs, stage your changes and commit them. Fuzzy search (type / to start a search after running gitin command. Interactive stage and see the diff of files (gitin status then press enter to see diff or space to stage). Commit/amend changes (gitin status then press c to commit or m to amend). Interactive hunk staging (gitin status then press p). Explore branches with useful filter options (e.g. gitin branch press enter to checkout). Convenient UX and minimalist design. See more options by running gitin --help, also you can get help for individual subcommand. Linux and macOS are supported, Windows is not at the moment. -

gitsigns.nvim
Git integration for buffers
Super fast git decorations implemented purely in lua/teal. Signs for added, removed, and changed lines. Asynchronous using luv. Navigation between hunks. Stage hunks (with undo). Preview diffs of hunks (with word diff). Customizable (signs, highlights, mappings, etc). Status bar integration. Git blame a specific line using virtual text. Hunk text object. Automatically follow files moved in the index. Live intra-line word diff. Ability to display deleted/changed lines via virtual lines. Support for yadm. Support for detached working trees. If you are running a development version of Neovim (aka master), then breakage may occur if your build is behind latest. Gitsigns provides an on_attach callback which can be used to setup buffer mappings. This plugin is actively developed and by one of the most well regarded vim plugin developers. Gitsigns will only implement features of this plugin if: it is simple, or, the technologies leveraged by Gitsigns (LuaJIT, Libuv, Neovim's API, etc). -
22
gitwatch
Watch a file or folder and automatically commit changes to a git repo
A bash script to watch a file or folder and commit changes to a git repo. Some programs auto-write their config files, without waiting for you to click an 'Apply' button; or even if there is such a button, most programs offer you no way of going back to an earlier version of your settings. If you commit your config file(s) to a git repo, you can track changes and go back to older versions. This script makes it convenient, to have all changes recorded automatically. If you use an editor that does not have built-in git support (or maybe if you don't like the git support it has), you can use gitwatch to automatically commit your files when you save them, or combine it with the editor's auto-save feature to fully automatically and regularly track your changes. If you have any other uses, or can think of ones, please let us know, and we can add them to this list! gitwatch can be installed from source by simply cloning the repository and putting the shell script into your $PATH. -

go-git
go-git is a highly extensible git implementation library written in Go
go-git is a highly extensible git implementation library written in pure Go. It can be used to manipulate git repositories at low level (plumbing) or high level (porcelain), through an idiomatic Go API. It also supports several types of storage, such as in-memory filesystems, or custom implementations, thanks to the Storer interface. It's being actively developed since 2015 and is being used extensively by Keybase, Gitea or Pulumi, and by many other libraries and tools. After the legal issues with the src-d organization, the lack of update for four months and the requirement to make a hard fork, the project is now back to normality. The project is currently actively maintained by individual contributors, including several of the original authors, but also backed by a new company, gitsight, where go-git is a critical component used at scale. go-git aims to be fully compatible with git, all the porcelain operations are implemented to work exactly as git does. -

gtm
Simple, seamless, lightweight time tracking for Git
Seamless time tracking for all your Git projects. GTM is automatic, seamless and lightweight. There is no need to remember to start and stop timers. It runs on occasion to capture activity triggered by your editor. The time metrics are stored locally with the git repository as Git notes and can be pushed to the remote repository. Simply install a plugin for your favorite editor and the GTM command line utility to start tracking your time now. When you are ready, commit your work like you usually do. GTM will automatically save the time spent associated with your commit. To check the time of the last commit type gtm report. GTM provides git aliases to make this easy. It defaults to origin for the remote repository. Time data can be retrieved from the remote repository by fetching. -

homeshick
git dotfiles synchronizer written in bash
In Unix, configuration files are king. Tailoring tools to suit your needs through configuration can be empowering. An immense number of hours is spent on getting these adjustments just right, but once you leave the confines of your own computer, these local optimizations are left behind. By the power of git, homeshick enables you to bring the symphony of settings you have poured your heart into with you to remote computers. With it you can begin to focus even more energy on bettering your work environment since the benefits are reaped on whichever machine you are using. However bare bones these machines are, provided that at least Bash 3 and Git 1.5 are available you can use homeshick. homeshick can handle multiple dotfile repositories. This means that you can install larger frameworks like oh-my-zsh or a multitude of emacs or vim plugins alongside your own customizations without clutter.
