    diny▲175

    Hi everyone, I built a CLI tool called *diny* that generates Git commit messages directly from your staged changes. - It runs `git diff` and filters out noise like lockfiles, build artifacts, and binaries. - From the cleaned diff it suggests a clear commit message. - You can confirm or refine the message before committing. Key points: - No setup or API keys required. - Lightweight, local-first workflow. - Supports different lengths and styles (short, normal, long; conventional or simple). - Built in Go with Cobra for a familiar CLI experience. Repo:…

    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…

    git-lrc▲300

    Hi 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…

    I use interactive rebase quite often, and particularly like the editor bundled with IntelliJ. But I do not always work with IntelliJ, and am not 'fluent' with Vim, so I tried to replicate roughly the same rebase experience within a TUI. I used a small TUI OCaml project i made last year. The notable features are: - Move commits up and down, fixup, drop - Rename commits from the editor (without having to stop for a reword during the rebase run) - Visualize modified files along commits - 'Explode' a commit ,creating a commit for each modified file (a thing I found myself doing quite often)…

    Hi HN, I built Giti, a command-line tool that converts plain English into actual Git commands using a fast, local language model (Qwen2.5-Coder, ~1 GB). Example: Input: giti "undo last commit" Output: git reset --soft HEAD~1 No internet required after setup. No API keys. You can also run it in an interactive shell to chain commands naturally. Key features: - Natural language to Git translation - Local LLM powered by Qwen2.5-Coder in GGUF format - Works fully offline after model download - Dry-run mode to preview commands before running - Interactive shell mode for session-based workflows -…

    I've built a lightweight copilot that integrates with Git commits, leveraging LangChain to support multiple LLM providers. I currently use it with Claude 3.7 (via Bedrock) and OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but I’d love to see how it performs with other LLMs. If you have access to any LangChain-supported LLMs, I’d really appreciate a quick test! Your feedback via GitHub Issues would be invaluable in improving the project. Thanks in advance!

    Onboard-CLI—a blazing-fast developer tool I built in Go. It uses AST parsing (Tree-sitter) to map out codebase architecture and automatically blocks spaghetti code and bad dependencies locally before you even commit. I heavily optimized the concurrency, so it can parse 50k+ files in under 10 seconds.
