go-git2 is a Go git library (read-only for now) using libgit2 transpiled to Go with wasm2go. As a result, it builds with CGO_ENABLED=0 and cross-compiles without a C toolchain. It supports 64-bit Linux, macOS, and Windows today.

While go-git has been great for my uses, its performance on larger repos and quirky differences from the git CLI output have been tricky to work with. I'm a huge fan of wasm2go and go-sqlite3 and wanted to apply the same approach and see what could be done. Incredibly happy with the results thus far, with 10-100x improvements on my real-world use cases. On the django repo, finding commits touching a file goes from 40s with go-git to 350ms, against 255ms for git itself. And the only unsafe is in wasm2go's bounds-checked memory accesses!

The API follows go-git v5, so read-only code is mostly a drop-in (still a few constructs to port). Write support is down the road.

The main module is MIT and the libgit2 module keeps the upstream license (GPLv2 w/ linking exception).

Give it a go!

I built glog for myself and other humans who still read code and use Git while coding agents do more of the writing.

In other Git TUIs, my muscle memory from `git log` and `git show` accidentally triggered destructive rebases. glog is strictly read-only, so I can browse without worry.

It shows commits with syntax highlighting via delta, uses familiar pager keys, and has opinionated, human-friendly defaults. Supports expanding and collapsing diff contents and many more.

I've done technical due diligence on acquisitions for years. Most of what changes a deal is answerable from the repository: does the team review its code, does one person carry the recent work, did the licence just change, are releases cut from what's on main, do the tests run in CI. So I built a tool that reads all of that from the history and working tree, and writes a report a deal team can act on.

Seven dimensions, 100+ deterministic checks. No model writes the findings.

Every finding cites a commit, a file or a line.

What code can't settle becomes a question for a person, not a guess.

Public repositories are free: paste a GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg or SourceHut address at borehole.dev.

Private repositories never reach our servers. pip install borehole, then borehole collect . --dry-run prints exactly what would be sent: counts, paths, short matched lines, hashed author identities. Never whole files.

The technology is new, and I'd rather hear about issues here than not. The first 20 people who email support@borehole.dev with "HN beta" get a free Report key for their own private repository, in exchange for a short survey after the report.

We live in a noisy digital world. For anyone with adhd, doing one thing at a time is the key. NOT using fancy todo managers. Win one intention at a time instead of planning, prioritizing, and juggling 100s of things.

This tool is a free, open-source application to help you stay on track. You set an intention before you work, and a big, fat overlay stays in your periphery to keep you on track.

Written purely in C, using raylib.
