About git

An MCP server for AI agents to inspect local Git repositories using native Git commands, without requiring the GitHub API. It provides history, diff, blame, activity statistics, and branch analysis.

Key features

  1. 01Filter commit history
  2. 02Compare refs with change summaries
  3. 03Inspect line-by-line authorship
  4. 04Review repository activity statistics
  5. 05Analyze branch status and divergence

Use cases

  1. 01Find commits by author, date, or path
  2. 02Summarize changes between branches
  3. 03Trace who changed a specific line
  4. 04Review contributors and frequently changed files

MCP support

Exposes local Git repository analysis tools to MCP clients, including log, diff, blame, statistics, and branch operations.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
"mcpServers": {
"rog0x-git": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@rog0x/mcp-git-tools"
]
}
}
}
Run commandnpx -y @rog0x/mcp-git-tools

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
