## 项目历史与用法

Git Tools is Rodrigo Silva's collection of small Git-related command-line utilities, distributed as normal `git-*` executables with optional man pages. The suite covers repository maintenance and migration chores that are useful but too specific to belong in core Git.

### 项目历史

The upstream repository was created in 2012, and the README says the tools have been tested against Git versions dating back to 2010. The collection is built from Bash utilities plus a Python utility, git-restore-mtime, which became the most visible member of the set.

### 采用历史

The README explicitly credits git-restore-mtime as the reason the repository was packaged into distributions. It lists Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora, EPEL-based systems, Gentoo, Arch AUR, Homebrew, MacPorts, Kali Linux, MidnightBSD mports, and Mageia as distribution channels or package ecosystems for the tools.

### 使用方式

Practitioners use the tools as Git subcommands after placing the executables in PATH or installing an operating-system package. Examples include restoring file modification times from commit history, finding repositories with uncommitted changes, cloning a subset of a repository while preserving relevant history, renaming branch prefixes, and stripping files before a merge.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Git Tools is a classic package-manager-friendly utility collection: small scripts, man pages, no daemon, and names that Git automatically discovers as subcommands. Its packaging story also shows how one highly useful script, git-restore-mtime, can pull a broader toolbox into distro archives.

### 时间线

- 2010: README says the tools were tested against Git versions dating back to this era.
- 2012: GitHub repository created and copyright notice added for Rodrigo Silva.
- 2020: Debian oldoldstable carried git-mestrelion-tools 2020.09-1.
- 2022: Debian stable line carried git-mestrelion-tools 2022.12-1.

### Related projects

- The suite extends Git and overlaps with shell scripts, Git aliases, and individual packaging of git-restore-mtime in Debian-derived systems.
