GitDB allows you to access bare Git repositories for reading and writing. It aims at allowing full access to loose objects as well as packs with performance and scalability in mind. It operates exclusively on streams, allowing to handle large objects with a small memory footprint.

git-cal is a script to view commits calendar similar to GitHub contributions calendar.

CVS is a version control system, an important component of Source Configuration Management (SCM). Using it, you can record the history of sources files, and documents. It fills a similar role to the free software RCS, PRCS, and Aegis packages.

Libgit2 is a portable, pure C implementation of the Git core methods provided as a re-entrant linkable library with a solid API, allowing you to write native speed custom Git applications in any language with bindings.

Mercurial is a free, distributed source control management tool. It efficiently handles projects of any size and offers an easy and intuitive interface.

Pre-commit is a multi-language package manager for pre-commit hooks. You specify a list of hooks you want and pre-commit manages the installation and execution of any hook written in any language before every commit.

Evolve is a Mercurial extension for faster and safer mutable history. It implements the changeset evolution concept for Mercurial.

Gitile is a Git forge written in Guile that lets you visualize your public Git repositories on a web interface.

SRC (or src) is simple revision control, a version-control system for single-file projects by solo developers and authors. It modernizes the venerable RCS, hence the anagrammatic acronym. The design is tuned for use cases like all those little scripts in your ~/bin directory, or a directory full of HOWTOs.

git-repo provides Git extensions for interacting conveniently with AGit-Flow or Gerrit servers. It makes it possible to create, update or fetch PR, and more. It is based on the repo tool that was developed for the Gerrit project, but also supports AGit-Flow and lifts the requirement to use a manifest file.

gource provides a software version control visualization. The repository is displayed as a tree where the root of the repository is the centre, directories are branches and files are leaves. Contributors to the source code appear and disappear as they contribute to specific files and directories.

This Git extension defines a subcommand, imerge, which performs an incremental merge between two branches. Its two primary design goals are to reduce the pain of resolving merge conflicts by finding the smallest possible conflicts and to allow a merge to be saved, tested, interrupted, published, and collaborated on while in progress.

Fossil is a distributed source control management system which supports access and administration over HTTP CGI or via a built-in HTTP server. It has a built-in wiki, built-in file browsing, built-in tickets system, etc.

This Git extension defines a subcommand, when-merged, whose core operation is to find the merge that brought a given commit into the specified ref(s). It has various options that control how information about the merge is displayed.

ghq provides a way to organize remote repository clones, like go get does. When you clone a remote repository by ghq get, ghq makes a directory under a specific root directory (by default ~/ghq) using the remote repository URL's host and path.

This package provides a custom transfer agent for Git LFS, allowing plain S3 bucket usage as remote storage for media files. This package uses a standalone agent instead of a server.

hut is a CLI tool for sr.ht. It helps you interact with sr.ht's public services:

builds

submit and manage build jobs

git

create, and manage git repositories and artifacts

hg

list Mercurial repositories

lists

manage mailing lists and patches

meta

manage PGP, and SSH keys

pages

publish and manage hosted websites

paste

create and manage pastes

todo

create and manage trackers, tickets

graphql

interact with GraphQL APIs directly

git-test-sequence is similar to an automated git bisect except it’s linear. It will test every change between two points in the DAG. It will also walk each side of a merge and test those changes individually.

Git is a free distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

The git-extras package provides a collection of additional git commands for repository metrics and summarization, commit and log editing, developer workflow, and project and release management.

Gitolite is an access control layer on top of Git, providing fine access control to Git repositories.

The vc-dwim package contains two tools, "vc-dwim" and "vc-chlog". vc-dwim is a tool that simplifies the task of maintaining a ChangeLog and using version control at the same time, for example by printing a reminder when a file change has been described in the ChangeLog but the file has not been added to the VC. vc-chlog scans changed files and generates standards-compliant ChangeLog entries based on the changes that it detects.

This package a interactive tool to interact with git branches using StGit.

Aegis is a project change supervisor, and performs some of the Software Configuration Management needed in a CASE environment. Aegis provides a framework within which a team of developers may work on many changes to a program independently, and Aegis coordinates integrating these changes back into the master source of the program, with as little disruption as possible. Resolution of contention for source files, a major headache for any project with more than one developer, is one of Aegis's major functions.
