   ggc – A terminal-based Git CLI written in Go▲65

   Hi HN, I built ggc (https://github.com/bmf-san/ggc), a terminal-based Git CLI tool written in Go. ggc provides: - A fast interactive UI (like `fzf`) for common Git operations - Traditional subcommands (e.g. `ggc add`, `ggc commit`) - Git-compatible config support (`ggc config` reads from `git config`) - Built-in aliases and workflow automation (e.g. `ggc addcommitpush`) The goal is to improve developer productivity by combining interactive workflows with scriptable CLI operations. It's still under active development, but I'd love feedback from the community! GitHub:…

   Ggc – A Git CLI tool written in Go with interactive UI▲44

   A while ago I shared an early version of ggc, a Git helper I built in Go. Since then the project has grown quite a bit, and I’d love to share the latest updates (v6.0). Repo: https://github.com/bmf-san/ggc Install: - macOS/Linux: `brew install ggc` - Go: `go install github.com/bmf-san/ggc/v6@latest` - Homebrew: `brew install ggc` - Or grab binaries: https://github.com/bmf-san/ggc/releases Features: Dual modes: Traditional CLI commands (ggc add, etc.) and interactive mode (launch with just ggc) Intuitive command structure:…

   Gitgpt – Natural Language Git▲108

   Hey folks, Here's a quick and dirty tool to use natural language to get git to do what you want. Example: $gitgpt create a new branch called feature/test add all the files and commit with msg creating feature test then push to origin I haven't put it through the wringer yet, however it's worked well with some pretty straight forward day to day git usage.

    Gut – An easy-to-use CLI for Git▲314

    Hi Hacker news ! I’m Julien and I built an alternative CLI for Git : gut. Even if I haven’t been coding for a long time (I’m in the first year studying computer science), I’ve always found git to be frustrating. The command naming is inconsistent and git lets you easily shoot yourself in the foot. I made gut, another git porcelain, to solve these issues. It provides a consistent naming of command. To do so, syntax is based on subcommands. For example, to delete a branch, run gut branch rm rather than git branch -d, same to delete a remote (gut remote rm) and so on. Gut also prevents you from…

Key points • Realistic typing animation • Syntax-highlighted diffs • File-tree view • Replay any commit • Self-contained CLI Demo video is in the README.

    Feature Flags Backed by Git▲93

    Hey all, I'm the founder of Flipt, an open-source (https://github.com/flipt-io/flipt) feature flag tool that I (and others) have been working on for the past few years. About a year or two ago we added support for serving flag state from various non-relational declarative stores like Git, OCI, Object Store, etc. Many of our users came to love the git-backed storage, as it allows them to keep their feature flags close to their code in there organization's repos. But they had one (rather large) ask, and that was the ability to use the UI to manage flag state changes and…

    Git Auto Commit (GAC) – LLM-powered Git commit command line tool▲56

    GAC is a tool I built to help users spend less time summing up what was done and more time building. It uses LLMs to generate contextual git commit messages from your code changes. And it can be a drop-in replacement for `git commit -m "..."`. Example: feat(auth): add OAuth2 integration with GitHub and Google - Implement OAuth2 authentication flow - Add provider configuration for GitHub and Google - Create callback handler for token exchange - Update login UI with social auth buttons Don't like it? Reroll with 'r', or type `r "focus on xyz"` and it rerolls the commit with your feedback. You…
