Gitinspector
The statistical analysis tool for git repositories
Gitinspector is a statistical analysis tool for git repositories. The default analysis shows general statistics per author, which can be complemented with a timeline analysis that shows the workload and activity of each author. Under normal operation, it filters the results to only show statistics about a number of given extensions and by default only includes source files in the statistical analysis. This tool was originally written to help fetch repository statistics from student projects in the course Object-oriented Programming Project (TDA367/DIT211) at Chalmers University of Technology and Gothenburg University. Shows cumulative work by each author in history. Filters results by an extension (default: java,c,cc,cpp,h,hh,hpp,py,glsl,rb,js, SQL). Can display a statistical timeline analysis. Scans for all filetypes (by extension) found in the repository. Multi-threaded; uses multiple instances of git to speed up analysis when possible. -

Gitkube
Build and deploy docker images to Kubernetes using git push
Gitkube is a tool for building and deploying Docker images on Kubernetes using git push. After a simple initial setup, users can simply keep git push-ing their repos to build and deploy to Kubernetes automatically. Ideal for development where you can push your WIP branch to the cluster to test. Reference implementation for writing git-based automation on your server. Fork this repo and create your own CRD + controller + git remote hook that can do things on the Kubernetes cluster. No dependencies except native tooling (git, kubectl). Plug and play installation. Simple public key-based authentication. RBAC ready - Control access to git remotes using RBAC. Support for namespace-based multi-tenancy - Remotes can only deploy to their own namespace. No assumptions about the repository structure. -

Gitlogue
A cinematic Git commit replay tool for the terminal
Gitlogue provides a fun and creative command-line tool that turns your Git commit history into an animated replay, displaying your commits as if someone were typing the changes in real time with cinematic flair. When you run this tool in the terminal, it visually replays diffs line by line, highlights syntax, and shows changes evolving in a way that feels like watching a code story unfold, which can be entertaining and useful for reviewing history or showcasing progress. It builds on typical Git data but reshapes it into a compelling narrative with visual appeal, making it great for demos, teaching, or just savoring your development journey. The tool is standalone and designed to be easy to install and run, so users don’t need complex setups to enjoy animated commit histories. Gitlogue adds atmosphere and personality to otherwise dry version control logs, and it supports terminal-friendly output that respects your existing workflow. -

Gitmal
A static page generator for repos
Gitmal is a static page generator that turns the contents of a Git repository into a clean, navigable HTML website, making it easier to share or showcase code outside of traditional Git hosting platforms. It reads repository metadata including files, commits, branches, and markdown, and produces a fully static set of pages with syntax-highlighted code, commit history, branch lists, and rendered documentation, so viewers can explore projects as if browsing a lightweight curated site. Designed for simplicity and performance, gitmal can be run locally or via a Docker container, and works across repositories of any size, producing fully self-contained output ready to be deployed to static web hosts. It supports themes and custom styles, allowing creators to personalize the look and feel of the generated site. For developers who want to archive, document, or display their code in a non-interactive context, gitmal provides a straightforward and configurable solution. -

Gitolite
Hosting git repositories
Gitolite is a lightweight Git server and access-control system that lets many human users share a single Unix account while enforcing fine-grained permissions. Configuration is “as code”: you manage users’ SSH keys and per-repo rules in a special admin repository, then push to apply changes instantly. Permissions are precise—read, write, or force-push can be allowed or denied per repository, branch, tag, or arbitrary ref patterns—so sensitive branches can be protected. Delegation features let large organizations hand off subsets of administration without giving away global control, and “wild” repositories make self-service project creation possible within policy. Hooks, logging, and auditing are baked in, giving visibility into who pushed what and when. Because it rides on plain SSH and standard Git, it’s fast, portable, and easy to host on anything from a low-power VPS to an enterprise server. -

Gitql
A git query language
Gitql is a Git query language. You can access the releases page and just grab the binary. If you want to compile itself just run go build. Gitql binary uses the embed file version.txt to outputs the gitql version command. On every release, the file content is replaced by the correct tag or git commit sha. -

Gitreceive
Easily accept and handle arbitrary git pushes
Gitreceive is a lightweight server utility for accepting arbitrary Git pushes and passing the received code to custom deployment or processing logic. It creates an SSH-accessible Git user and dynamically generates bare repositories when new repository names are pushed. Each repository receives a special pre-receive hook that invokes a general receiver script. That script receives repository, revision, user, and SSH-key information and can run any server-side workflow the operator chooses. Pushed repository contents are streamed to the receiver through standard input as an uncompressed archive. SSH public keys are associated with usernames and installed with forced commands so Git requests are intercepted safely by the receiver. Output from the processing script can be streamed back to the developer during the original git push, making the tool suitable for deployment platforms and custom Git-based automation. -

Gradle Git
Git plugin for Gradle
Gradle‑Git bundles several plugins, most notably org.ajoberstar.grgit—for Gradle projects. It provides a Groovy/JGit wrapper (Grgit) to manage Git operations, plus support modules for GitHub Pages publishing and version-based release workflows. -

Gradle Git Version
A Gradle plugin that uses `git describe` to produce a version string
This Gradle plugin derives your project’s version directly from the state of the Git repository, turning tags and commits into consistent semantic versions. It reads the most recent tag, the number of commits since that tag, and whether the working tree is dirty, then composes a deterministic version string. Teams can enforce patterns (for example, treating non-tagged builds as snapshots) and keep CI builds reproducible without hardcoding versions in build.gradle. The plugin integrates with Gradle’s project.version, so the computed version flows automatically into publishing, packaging, and artifact naming. It works well in branching workflows by incorporating branch or distance information, making debug artifacts easy to trace back to source. By centralizing version logic around Git history, it eliminates manual bumps and reduces mistakes when cutting releases across multiple modules. -

Gradle Libraries Plugin
This plugin allows to specify versions of external libraries
This plugin allows to specify versions of external libraries in a centralized place and use them across the project. It's specifically useful for Gradle multi-projects. This plugin also uses com.github.ben-manes.versions plugin to automatically update libraries once new releases are available. Run ./gradlew syncLibraries to create $rootDir/dependencies.json file with all currently known dependencies. Once dependencies.json file is in place by generating via syncLibraries task or just by manually creating it, all declared in dependencies.json libraries can be used in project files. It's not a secret that it's really hard to keep libraries up to date especially when there are dozens and sometimes hundreds of them. For that purpose, this plugin has update libraries task that will automatically check for available new versions of libraries. -

Grgit
The Groovy way to use Git
Grgit is a Groovy‑friendly wrapper around Eclipse JGit that simplifies Git operations within Groovy scripts or Gradle builds. It provides a cleaner, fluent API for common Git tasks (clone, commit, tag, branch), and ships as a Gradle plugin for easy project integration. -

Guitar
Git GUI Client
Many Git client apps have some problems. It's too late to start up, falls well, is user registration tedious when downloading, is paid for commercial use, is not multi-platform, or is an animation or visual effect. It was said that the production was overkill and the wizard and the source code were not published. I tried to eliminate such inconvenience as much as possible. At first I started developing it for my own study, because I was interested in learning how to use Git and how it worked inside. Some of the best engineers of the time may think Git in GUI. That's a lot of it. When I want to execute a command that I rarely use, I sometimes force myself to do not rely on the GUI, open the terminal and hand enter the git command. If you find a feature that you find useful, you can incorporate it into this app. You can use it comfortably for daily use of Git operations, want to see the commit graphs cleanly, or just for such uses. -

Informative git prompt for bash and fish
An informative and fancy bash prompt for Git users
This prompt is a port of the "Informative git prompt for zsh". A bash prompt that displays information about the current git repository. In particular the branch name, difference with remote branch, number of files staged, changed, etc. The advantage of this approach is, that you only need to specify the parts, that are different to the Default theme. You can set the GIT_PROMPT_SHOW_UNTRACKED_FILES variable to no or normal to speed things up if you have lots of untracked files in your repository. This can be the case for build systems that put their build artifacts in the subdirectory structure of the git repository. Setting it to all will count all untracked files, including files listed in .gitignore. The most settings are now stored in theme files. To select a theme, set the variable GIT_PROMPT_THEME to the name of the theme located in <INSTALLDIR>/themes without the extension .bgptheme. -

Java API for GitHub
Java API for GitHub
This library defines an object oriented representation of the GitHub API. By "object oriented" we mean there are classes that correspond to the domain model of GitHub (such as GHUser and GHRepository), operations that act on them as defined as methods (such as GHUser.follow()), and those object references are used in favor of using string handle (such as GHUser.isMemberOf(GHOrganization) instead of GHUser.isMemberOf(String)) The library supports both github.com and GitHub Enterprise. Most of the GitHub APIs are covered, although there are some corners that are still not yet implemented. The library allows connecting to GitHub via several different authentication mechanisms. This library defines a common convention so that applications using this library will look at a consistent location. In this convention, the library looks at ~/.github property file. The content of the files depends on the way you want this library to authenticate as shown. -

Just One Single History
Just One Single History
Combine the advantages of a monorepo with those of multirepo setups by leveraging a blazingly-fast, incremental, and reversible implementation of git history filtering. The partial repo will act as a normal git repository but only contain the files found in the subdirectory and only commits affecting those files. The partial repo supports both fetch as well as push operation. This helps not just to improve performance on the client due to having fewer files in the tree, it also enables collaboration on parts of the monorepo with other parties utilizing git's normal distributed development features. For example, this makes it easy to mirror just selected parts of your repo to public github repositories or specific customers. Simplify code sharing and dependency management. Beyond just subdirectories, Josh supports filtering, re-mapping and composition of arbitrary virtual repositories from the content found in the monorepo. -

Magit
A Git porcelain inside Emacs
Magit is a complete text-based user interface to Git. It fills the glaring gap between the Git command-line interface and various GUIs, letting you perform trivial as well as elaborate version control tasks with just a couple of mnemonic key presses. Magit looks like a prettified version of what you get after running a few Git commands but in Magit every bit of visible information is also actionable to an extent that goes far beyond what any Git GUI provides and it takes care of automatically refreshing this output when it becomes outdated. In the background Magit just runs Git commands and if you wish you can see what exactly is being run, making it possible for you to learn the git command-line by using Magit. Using Magit for a while will make you a more effective version control user. Magit supports and streamlines the use of Git features that most users and developers of other Git clients apparently thought could not be reasonably mapped to a non-command-line interface. -

NodeGit
Native Node bindings to Git
Asynchronous native Node bindings to libgit2. NodeGit will work on most systems out-of-the-box without any native dependencies. If you receive errors about libstdc++, which are commonly experienced when building on Travis-CI, you can fix this by upgrading to the latest libstdc++-4.9. If you wish to help contribute to NodeGit it is useful to build locally. If you encounter errors, you most likely have not configured the dependencies correctly. You will need libpcre, libpcreposix, libkrb5, libk5crypto, and libcom_err libraries installed on your Linux machine. When building locally, you will also need development packages for kerberos and pcre, so both pcre-config, and krb5-config utilities must be present on your machine. -

OFormsCI
Continuous Integration for Oracle Forms/Reports Fusion Middleware
OFormsCI is a set of tools to form a complete tool chain for continuous integration with Git, Jenkins, Oracle Forms/Reports and WebLogic server. -

Octokit
Ruby toolkit for the GitHub API
API wrappers should reflect the idioms of the language in which they were written. Octokit.rb wraps the GitHub API in a flat API client that follows Ruby conventions and requires little knowledge of REST. Most methods have positional arguments for required input and an options hash for optional parameters, headers, or other options. While most methods return a Resource object or a Boolean, sometimes you may need access to the raw HTTP response headers. Access tokens can be revoked, removing access for only that token without having to change your password everywhere. Access tokens have access scopes that allow for more granular access to API resources. For instance, you can grant a third party access to your gists but not your private repositories. Two-Factor Authentication brings added security to the account by requiring more information to login. -
23
Onefetch
Git repository summary on your terminal
Onefetch is a command-line Git information tool written in Rust that displays project information and code statistics for a local Git repository directly on your terminal. The tool is completely offline, no network access is required. By default, the repo's information is displayed alongside the dominant language's logo, but you can further configure onefetch to instead use an image, on supported terminals, text input, or nothing at all. It automatically detects open source licenses from texts and provides the user with valuable information like code distribution, pending changes, number of dependencies (by package manager), top contributors (by number of commits), the size on disk, creation date, LOC (lines of code), etc. Onefetch can be configured via command-line flags to display exactly what you want, the way you want it to: you can customize ASCII/Text formatting, disable info lines, ignore files & directories, and output in multiple formats (JSON, Yaml), etc. -

PHP GitHub API
A simple PHP GitHub API client, Object Oriented, tested and documented
A simple PHP GitHub API client, Object Oriented, tested and documented. Uses GitHub API v3 & supports GitHub API v4. The object API (v3) is very similar to the RESTful API. Object Oriented wrapper for GitHub API, written with PHP. Light and fast thanks to lazy loading of API classes. Extensively tested and documented. We are decoupled from any HTTP messaging client with help by HTTPlug. To integrate this library in laravel Graham Campbell created graham-campbell/github. See the installation instructions to get started in laravel. -

POD
Git push deploy for Node.js
POD is a Node.js deployment and process-management tool built around the simplicity of git push deployment. It creates bare Git repositories on a Linux server and automatically deploys pushed code into managed application directories. PM2 handles process supervision, restarts, clustering, logs, and other runtime settings. Applications can also track remote GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or arbitrary Git repositories through webhooks. A web service exposes application status through a dashboard, JSON endpoint, and authenticated controls. Configuration supports environment variables, per-app PM2 settings, custom branches, and post-receive hooks. Docker images and a programmatic Node API are also included, although the project reflects an older Node.js deployment stack.
