unname

A simple CLI for anonymizing Python codebases for blind review.

It anonymizes pyproject.toml and README.md in your project (see below for details). If your project is a uv workspace, it anonymizes all workspace members.

Usage

Using uv:

# Files will be overwritten in-place, so make sure you commit your edits and
# make a new branch before running
git switch -c anon
uvx unname

You can also run git grep "Your Name" to verify your name is not accidentaly left in the git repository.

What it does

pyproject.toml anonymization

authors and maintainer fields will be replaced with an empty list (if they exist).

README.md anonymization

The content between <!-- begin-unname --> and <!-- end-unname --> will be removed. For example:

Input

# My Awesome Project

Code for the paper "My Awesome Method."

<!-- begin-unname -->
- Authors: Alice & Bob
- arXiv link: arxiv.org/abs/1234.56789
<!-- end-unname -->
