nostr

gitworkshop.dev

git-remote-nostr

git remote helper (plugin) for seemless nostr integration

ngit

a command line tool to manage repos and advanced patch submission / review

How it works

Git is a decentralized version control system, yet most freedom tech projects use centralized walled gardens on top of git as a social and collaboration layer for code changes.

Gitworkshop.dev, git-remote-nostr and ngit are tools to enable code collaboration over nostr. Gitworkshop.dev provides a visual interface to discuss PRs and open issues. git-remote-nostr enables PR creation, review and incorporation using standard git tooling. ngit handles repository setup and advanced PR submission.
