The project translated parts of GitHub for Mac's opinionated branch workflow back to the command line: auto-stashing during branch switches, simple publish/unpublish commands, and a sync operation that handled fetch, merge or rebase, push, and unstash. The maintained package identity later centered on Frost Ming's `frostming/legit` repository and `frostming.github.io/legit` documentation. PyPI metadata for the package lists Kenneth Reitz among maintainers and authorship, while the repository topic and README preserve the GitHub-for-Mac inspiration. ### Adoptionsgeschichte Legit spread through Python packaging first, with PyPI releases beginning in 2011 and later system packaging through Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, MacPorts, Nix, and Scoop. Its appeal peaked in the period when Git workflows were still intimidating to many new developers and GUI clients were influencing command-line ergonomics. ### Wie es verwendet wird Package users install the `legit` command and run it inside Git repositories. Its commands are deliberately narrower than raw Git: switch branches while preserving worktree changes, sync a published branch, publish or unpublish branches, and list branch publication status. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren Legit is package-nerd history because it captures a particular moment in Git tooling: instead of exposing every Git feature, it offered a tiny vocabulary for a common feature-branch workflow. It also sits in the lineage of Kenneth Reitz's Python packaging era, where branding, API empathy, and CLI polish were treated as part of open-source distribution. ### Zeitleiste - 2011-06-27: PyPI recorded the 0.0.1 source distribution upload. - 2012-03-25: PyPI recorded the 0.1.0 release page for Legit. - 2019-12-10: GitHub releases listed v1.2.0 for `frostming/legit`. - 2020-03-14: PyPI recorded the 1.2.0.post0 wheel and source uploads. ### Related projects - Related Git ergonomics tools include GitHub Desktop, GitHub for Mac, hub, gh, git-extras, and custom Git aliases. Related Kenneth Reitz projects include Requests, Pipenv, Records, Maya, Delegator, and other 'for Humans' tools. ### Quellen - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise Für legit wurde kein passendes lokales Secret-Handling-Manifest gefunden.
