Distributed code review system for Git repos.
By "distributed", we mean that code reviews are stored inside of the repository as git objects. Every developer on your team has their own copy of the review history that they can push or pull. When pulling, updates from the remote repo are automatically merged by the tool.
This design removes the need for any sort of server-side setup. As a result, this tool can work with any git hosting provider, and the only setup required is installing the client on your workstation.

Simple way to access various statistics in git repository. Git quick statistics is a simple and efficient way to access various statistics in git repository.
Any git repository may contain tons of information about commits, contributors, and files. Extracting this information is not always trivial, mostly because there are a gadzillion options to a gadzillion git commands - I don't think there is a single person alive who knows them all. Probably not even Linus Torvalds himself :).

Synchronize tracking repositories. Safe and simple one-script git synchronization.
This script intends to sync near-automatically via git in "tracking" repositories where a nice history is not as crucial as having one.
Suppose you have a set of text files you care about, multiple machines to work on, and a central git repository (a.k.a. bare repository) at your disposal. You do not care about atomic commits, but coarse versioning and backup is grave. For example, server configuration or org-mode files.
