Products that do what Logis – a searchable scientific log in your Git commit history does

I built this tool that auto-commits your code when you run an experiment, storing structured metadata in the commit message. A bit like `wandb` but local. There is a small CLI that lets you query for (e.g.) `metrics.accuracy > 0.9`, to find the code state that produced a good results. This is the first release, and there are quite a few planned features if anyone wants to submit a PR.

    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 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…

    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…

    Hello HN! I've developed AICMT, a tool that not only generates commit messages but also automatically analyzes and splits your code changes into multiple well-organized commits following best practices. Key features: - Analyzes code changes and splits them into logical commits - Generates descriptive commit messages for each split - Allows specifying number of commits or letting AI decide - Works with any git repository Built with Python 3.10+, available via pip/brew. Demo: https://asciinema.org/a/695352 Github: https://github.com/versun/aicmt I…

    Hey HN, I built ShadowGit a while back to automatically commit code every minute to a hidden git repo (.shadowgit.git). Original goal was to easily rollback when AI tools break things. But I discovered something interesting: this minute-by-minute history is perfect context for AI assistants. So I built an MCP server that lets Claude/Cursor query this history using native git commands. The results surprised me: Before: Claude would read my entire codebase repeatedly, burning 15,000+ tokens to debug issues. After: Claude runs `git log --grep="drag"` finds when drag-and-drop worked,…

    Git AI is a side project I created to track AI-generated code in our repos from development, through PRs, and into production. It does not just count lines, it keeps track of them as your code evolves, gets refactored and the git history gets rewritten. Think 'git blame' but for AI code. There's a lot about how it works in the post, but wanted to share how it's been impacting me + my team: - I find I review AI code very differently than human code. Being able to see the prompts my colleagues used, what the AI wrote, and where they stepped in to override has been extraordinarily helpful. This…

    Hunk-by-hunk and line-by-line staging for git, designed for building clean commit history! Writing code is messy. Git history doesn't have to be. During development we experiment, refactor, backtrack, and fix mistakes. If every step ends up as a commit, the history becomes noise. A curated history turns that process into a clear sequence of logical changes. git-stage-batch helps you build that history incrementally by letting you stage changes hunk-by-hunk or line-by-line, shaping commits around meaning instead of the order the edits happened.

    This is a small plugin for Simon Willison’s llm utility. It uses staged Git changes and generates a commit message using a LLM. You can do things like: git add . # Stage your changes llm commit # Automatically generate a commit message from the staged diff llm commit --model gpt-4 --max-tokens 150 --temperature 0.8 --yes # Customize model settings (e.g., GPT-4) or skip confirmation

    I built a CLI tool that lists out all the local git repos within a directory in an easy to read table format including relevant information such as last modified date and the status of branches in the repo, along with whether it is synced with remote or not. It also includes a bunch of flags to get exactly what you want in the format you want. I got this idea as I was trying organize the large amount of local git repos I had. I also found it particularly useful when traveling since I use a different device. In these cases, it is really helpful to know which local git repos I forgot to push…

    Hi HN, I've been using Claude Code etc. for nearly all my work lately, and I wanted to see how many of my commits it was actually co-authoring. So I made this little tool to visualize my usage. You log in with Github (read-only), it scans your commits from the last year, and visualizes how many came from Claude, Cursor, or any tool that adds Co-Authored-By trailer to the commit message. Caveat: not all tools add this trailer, so this doesn't include e.g. Codex. Still, hope you find it interesting!

    I started an experiment to let a WASM-powered webapp interact with a local git repo and see how well this works. It turns out, it works pretty well! I made it into a "git wrapped" tool that shows you when you committed the most, and what languages and files you most touched. Despite the scary prompt when you use the filesystem API everything happens locally and your code stays private. (You can of course also just try it on cloned public github repos). Let me know what you think!
