24 alternatives to Blog Posts from Git Commits – A Tiny Tool for the Lazy Dev
I put together a small prototype that might help folks like me who struggle with keeping their website’s blog active just for SEO. It’s a basic tool: you enter your Git repo details (owner, name, branch), pick a date range, and it generates a short blog post from the commits in that period. The idea is to give small businesses and solo devs a way to keep their blog up-to-date with actual product updates without needing to write new content. Right now, it’s still pretty minimal but I’d really appreciate any feedback, especially if you think this could be useful, or if you have ideas on how it…

I've always wanted a better way to explore the authorship data embedded in a Git commit log. I'm having fun building a CLI tool to do this. It's a bit like the "Contributors" tab on Github that shows you how many commits each contributor has made but much faster and with many more options. If you get a chance to try it out, please let me know. I'd love to hear feedback and suggestions. Thank you!

git-lrc▲300Hi HN, I'm the author of git-lrc, would appreciate some feedback from the community Last year my team started using AI coding tools more heavily, and we found ourselves generating tons of code, but spending less time looking at the stuff that's been generated. We felt like we were losing a bit of grip/understanding of what we were building. Regressions occasionally slipped through. Sometimes changes made it all the way to production only to be reverted later. We tried several AI code review tools, but most operate at PR time. That felt too late. I wanted review to happen while the…

Git Hooting▲12400's called, they want their RSS feeds back. I was looking at my growing Github gist collection when a sudden urge to blog and make a name for myself "by not programming" struck. Part way into implementing my oh so special static website generator it occurred to me that, quite frankly, Github gists is a pretty decent publishing platform. I mean, it gives you reasonably extended markdown with previews, heck I could even write in org-mode, has comments, follower - followee relationship, extended search with filters, check out locally and push your edits. Did someone say "edit button"? Thus the…

I kept failing at building in public for the same reason every time: not fear of judgment, just the blank page after a long day of shipping. Something always happened. But converting "refactored auth flow" or "fixed that edge case that's been annoying me for a week" into something worth posting felt like a second job on top of the actual job. So I'd skip it. Then skip it again. Then stop entirely. The approach: connect your GitHub, it pulls recent commits and repo activity, and generates draft posts for multiple platforms in your tone — raw founder voice, not content creator polish. The idea…

Devlog is a powerful tool that automatically generates (b)log posts from your Git commit history, providing a natural language summary of your development progress. It uses ollama to generate the blog posts locally so it never sends your data to third-party servers.

Hi HN, I built a simple tool that summarizes your team’s git logs into a weekly update that teams can send to leaders, other teams, etc. I hated writing the same update multiple times a week to everyone asking “what’s the status of X” Copy your repo’s commit logs with git log —all —since=“1 week ago”, paste them, and get a well-formatted update. Planning to add Github integration to further automate. Curious what folks think.

I've been trying to figure out how long feature development takes, for years. I'm not a fan of (a priori) estimations of work, which just seem like the wrong measure. I think I've got a better way. Genuinely interested if some git gurus can improve this. Particularly around the pre-push hook, which is dependent on retained squash commit text. Or if there's an entirely better way to achieve the same thing.
