## Project history and usage

git-pages-cli is the command-line publishing client for git-pages, a Codeberg-hosted static site server for Git forges. The CLI uploads Git repositories or local directories to a git-pages server, manages DNS challenge material, and deletes or checks sites.

### Project history

The broader git-pages server repository was created on Codeberg in 2025, and the git-pages-cli repository followed on 2025-11-16. The CLI's release stream began soon after, with Codeberg release entries through the 1.x series during 2025 and 2026.

### Adoption history

git-pages-cli grew inside the Forgejo and Codeberg-oriented ecosystem rather than the GitHub-centered Git extension ecosystem. The README documents binary releases, source installation with Go, container images hosted on Codeberg, package-manager availability, and a separate Forgejo Action for CI workflows.

### How it is used

Practitioners use the CLI to prove domain control with DNS challenge records, upload a public Git repository, upload a local directory, remove a site, run authorization-only dry runs, choose a server host when TLS bootstrapping requires it, and create time-limited sites when the server allows expiration.

### Why package nerds care

The package is notable because it packages an open static-site publishing workflow around Git forges, DNS-based authorization, Forgejo tokens, and simple command-line deployment. It also shows how newer Codeberg projects distribute software through releases, containers, Go install paths, Homebrew, and Nix.

### Timeline

- 2025: git-pages server repository was created on Codeberg.
- 2025: git-pages-cli repository was created on Codeberg.
- 2025: v1.2.1 and v1.3.0 releases appeared during early CLI iteration.
- 2026: 1.x releases continued with package-manager and container installation paths documented.
