About:
GitGame is an interactive command-line utility that challenges users to identify the author of specific git commits. It serves as a fun way to improve familiarity with a project's commit history and contributor patterns. The tool fetches data from a repository and presents a quiz-style interface to test your knowledge of the codebase's development history.
Key Features:
  • Quiz-style interface for guessing commit authors
  • Supports analyzing remote git repositories
  • Educational tool for learning project history
  • Simple command-line interaction
Use Cases:
  • Onboarding new team members to a codebase
  • Team building activities for development teams
  • Learning git history of open source projects
Alternatives:
  • git-blame – Native git command that shows line-by-line authorship rather than a quiz game format
  • tig – Text-mode interface for git that provides repository browsing but not gamified learning
