StGit uses a patch stack workflow. Each individual patch focuses on a single concern, while a stack of patches forms a series of commits. Patches are stored as normal git commits, allowing easy merging of StGit patches into other repositories using standard Git.

Features include:

• Import and export patches from Git with stg commit and stg uncommit

• Create new patches and add them to the stack with stg new

• Update a patch from the working tree with stg refresh and stg edit

• See information about the stack or patch with stg series and stg show

• Export and send a series of patches by email using stg email

Gitlint is a Git commit message linter written in Python: it checks your commit messages for style.

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

Breezy (brz) is a decentralized revision control system. By default, Breezy provides support for both the Bazaar and Git file formats. Breezy is backwards compatible with Bazaar's disk format and protocols. One of the key differences with Bazaar is that Breezy runs on Python 3.3 and later, rather than on Python 2.

xdiff is the file differential library used by git, which has been extracted into a standalone library for compatibility with other git-like projects such as libgit2.

This package reads and writes loose and packed (objects found in git packfiles) Git objects. It uses the pack package to search pack index files and locate the corresponding delta-base chain in the appropriate pack file. If gitobj can't find a loose object with the appropriate SHA-1, it will search the repository's packfile(s) instead. If it finds an object in a packfile, it will reconstruct the object along its delta-base chain and return it.

Stagit creates static pages for git repositories, the results can be served with a HTTP file server of your choice.

Trac is a minimalistic web-based software project management and bug/issue tracking system. It provides an interface to the Git and Subversion revision control systems, an integrated wiki, flexible issue tracking and convenient report facilities.

Savane is a Web-based software hosting system. It includes issue tracking (bugs, tasks, support, news and documentation), project member management by roles and individual account maintenance.

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.

git-remote-gcrypt is a Git remote helper to push and pull from repositories encrypted with GnuPG. It works with the standard Git transports, including repository hosting services like GitLab.

Remote helper programs are invoked by Git to handle network transport. This helper handles gcrypt: URLs that access a remote repository encrypted with GPG, using our custom format.

Supported locations are local, rsync:// and sftp://, where the repository is stored as a set of files, or instead any Git URL where gcrypt will store the same representation in a Git repository, bridged over arbitrary Git transport.

The aim is to provide confidential, authenticated Git storage and collaboration using typical untrusted file hosts or services.

The rcshist utility displays the complete revision history of a set of RCS files including log messages and patches. It can also display the patch associated with a particular revision of an RCS file.

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.

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

GNU CSSC provides a replacement for the legacy Unix source code control system SCCS. This allows old code still under that system to be accessed and migrated on modern systems.

git-crypt enables transparent encryption and decryption of files in a git repository. Files which you choose to protect are encrypted when committed, and decrypted when checked out. git-crypt lets you freely share a repository containing a mix of public and private content. git-crypt gracefully degrades, so developers without the secret key can still clone and commit to a repository with encrypted files. This lets you store your secret material (such as keys or passwords) in the same repository as your code, without requiring you to lock down your entire repository.

Grokmirror enables replicating large git repository collections efficiently. Mirrors decide to clone and update repositories based on a manifest file published by servers.

git open opens the repository's website from the command-line, guessing the URL pattern from the origin remote.

git-credential-oauth is a Git credential helper that securely authenticates to GitHub, GitLab, BitBucket, Gerrit, Gitea, and Forgejo using OAuth. The first time you authenticate, the helper opens a browser window to the host. Subsequent authentication within storage lifetime is non-interactive.

GNU Arch, aka. tla, was one of the first free distributed version-control systems (DVCS). It saw its last release in 2006. This package is provided for users who need to recover tla repositories and for historians.

Compute various size metrics for a Git repository, flagging those that might cause problems or inconvenience.
