## Historique du projet et usages

Git Xet is the Git extension and Git LFS-compatible command-line entry point for Xet storage. It sits at the boundary between ordinary Git workflows and Hugging Face's Xet-backed storage for large model and dataset files.

### Historique du projet

Xet originated in the XetHub storage work later acquired by Hugging Face in August 2024. The Hugging Face xet-core repository adapted that technology into Rust crates, Python bindings, and the git-xet binary, with public git-xet tags beginning at git-xet-v0.1.0 in 2025.

### Historique d'adoption

The tool's adoption is tied to Hugging Face Hub storage. Hugging Face documentation describes Xet as replacing Git LFS for Hub storage needs while preserving Git-style pointer files and ordinary repository workflows for large binary artifacts.

### Modes d'utilisation

Practitioners install Git Xet, run git xet install, and then use normal Git add, commit, and push flows against Hugging Face repositories. The extension invokes the Xet protocol under the hood so only changed chunks of large files need to move.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

git-xet matters to package nerds because it packages a storage backend transition as a Git extension. Homebrew, Nix, Scoop, and winget entries make an ML storage protocol feel like a regular developer-machine dependency.

### Chronologie

- 2024: Hugging Face acquired XetHub.
- 2025: xet-core published git-xet release tags.
- 2025: Hugging Face documentation described Git Xet as the Git path into Xet-backed Hub storage.

### Related projects

- xet-core provides the Rust client technology.
- hf-xet and huggingface_hub provide the Python path into the same storage system.
- Git LFS remains a compatibility reference point for pointer-file workflows.
