By
Ben Schellenberger
Crumbles when you bite it. Light on filling.
Summary
git-fire is a command-line tool that automatically discovers and backs up all Git repositories on a system. It features a streaming pipeline that starts backups before scanning finishes, includes secret detection before auto-committing changes, and provides a dry-run mode for safety. The tool is built from the 'in case of fire: git commit, git push, leave building' meme and includes a Bubble Tea TUI with fire animation. It's currently in beta and released under the MIT license.
