   Slack Meets GitHub Issues▲373

   Last year I gave in to the temptation of doing my own startup and quit my job, just like many others have done on this site. Since then, I’ve severely changed my lifestyle and reduced my living costs to a crazy low figure and worked my ass off for the last 8 months to achieve this: www.openloopz.com I have written more about it on Medium here: http://goo.gl/JN03yf I knew from the start the odds were stacked against me. I’m almost 36, I have a family and I live in the North East of England where - without wanting to sound negative - the opportunities are few and far between…

    Git Push No-Mistakes▲19

    no-mistakes is how I kill AI slop. It puts a local git proxy in front of my real remote. I push to no-mistakes instead of origin, and it spins up a disposable worktree, runs my coding agent as a validation pipeline, forwards upstream only after every check passes, opens a clean PR automatically, and babysits CI pipeline for me.

    Git Pushups▲131

    Hi HN! I made this app out of necessity: sometimes I'll troll over my laptop all day without moving until lunch break or work is done. No good. So I made git hook to block my git commits if I didn't do some calisthenics. Later, after I noticed it was useful, I decided to open it up for others. It works like this: - Download the iOS or Android app - Install the .git hook - Do daily pushups with the app or else your hooks will fail Pushup form is validated via ARKit/MLKit and the accelerometer and I only use github for authentication. If you find it useful, let me know! Justin

    Epiq – Distributed Git based issue tracker TUI▲91

    Issue trackers typically live outside of your workflow, with poor ergonomics. Epiq aims to solve that, bringing issue tracking into your terminal. Multi-user collaboration is achieved via git using user-scoped immutable event logs that converge in memory. Put my all into it. Let me know what you think.

    CommitGate – Automatically scan your commit for vulnerabilities▲5

    Hello HN! I built a pre-commit code scanner that checks your staged changes for security vulnerabilities every time you run 'git commit'. I am an inexperienced programmer and this is my first personal project. Any feedback, positive or negative, big or small, relevant or not, would be greatly helpful and appreciated! The tool requires Gitleaks and Python to run, you will also need to use your own AI API key, which I understand is a big setup friction. You can check out my demo video instead if that is more convenient: https://youtu.be/ZYe5vWFRTus?si=9Fv8DhTHktwDK4mV Thank you…

    Branching – Continuous Version Control (real-time sync for Git)▲5

    Hey HN, I'm Fedor (solo founder). After ~20 years of watching devs fight Git, I'm building Branching. Branching streams your local edits to teammates in real time - no manual push/pull. It's Git-compatible and works offline. Why you might care - Teams see each other's changes instantly instead of in PR-sized batches - Conflicts surface ASAP while context is fresh (LLM-assisted merge is experimental, off by default) - Same GitHub remote, so no migration Ships today - VSCode extension + desktop app (macOS / Windows / Linux) - 3 small product teams have been using it for 1–6…

    Personal Time Tracking with Git▲16

    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.
