Ask HN: Project that amends Git history based on a schedule

5 pointsby SamBorickover 1 year ago
Hi HN, sometime in the last year someone posted a project that would modify git history in a repository based on a provided schedule. You could specify a time range, and it would go through and move commits outside of that time range. I've googled and checked the various HN search products, but I haven't been able to find it! Does anyone remember?

I am not familiar with a project that does that specifically. However, you can easily perform that type of operation with git-filter-repo and its --commit-callback flag , which lets you modify commit objects with a custom Python snippet.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;newren&#x2F;git-filter-repo">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;newren&#x2F;git-filter-repo</a>
