# feder-cr/git-ai

> An open-source implementation of a server-centric version control system designed for coding agents: always-online clients, server-side history and search, and compare-and-swap landing without a merge queue.

- Magnitude: 6.8 out of 10 — Early signal
- Stars: 1,036 total · +335 stars measured 2026-10-16, 00:04–15:26 UTC, ≈ 567 by evening
- Star trust: unusual star pattern (heuristic)
- Category: Developer tools · Language: Go · Created: 2026-10-15 · Last push: 2026-10-16

## Useful for

- Run a local server and cache daemon via quickstart.sh to test agent change landing
- Configure per-agent tokens and branch policies to restrict what each agent may do
- Attach SQLite or PostgreSQL plus S3-compatible storage to scale the server across nodes

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-16 (UTC), 00:04–15:26: 701 → 1036 stars (+335). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +567 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 1 day old and already has 1,036 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #14.
- Hacker News: “Redesigning source control at Anthropic” — 886 points, 2 days ago.
- About 64 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Unusual star pattern (heuristic).
- No issues or pull requests despite 1,036 stars.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 109
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 29
- Average over the last week: 791 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 4
- Latest release: v0.1.0 (2026-10-15)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
