Make large Git repositories feel instant — a lightweight cross-platform daemon that accelerates git status and maintenance via fsmonitor and file watching
Project description
gity-cli
Make large Git repositories feel instant — install via pip.
What is gity?
Gity is a lightweight, cross-platform daemon that accelerates Git operations on large repositories. It watches your files, maintains warm caches, and runs background maintenance so git status stays fast even in repos with millions of files.
This PyPI package is a thin wrapper that downloads and installs the correct pre-built native binary for your platform on first use.
Installation
pip install gity-cli
Or with uv:
uv tool install gity-cli
Quick Start
# Register your large repo (one-time setup)
gity register /path/to/large-repo
# Git commands are now accelerated
cd /path/to/large-repo
git status # Fast!
