Git Source Code Exploration | Generated by AI
This is the Git source code — the actual distributed version control system written by Linus Torvalds. You’re in /Users/lzwjava/projects/git which contains the full C source tree of git itself.
Key files you’ll find:
- Core:
builtin/(commands),object-store/,refs/,diff.c,merge.c - xdiff/: diff/merge algorithms (patience, histogram)
- Transport:
remote-curl.c,send-pack.c,fetch-pack.c(protocol handling) - Pack files:
pack-objects.c,index-pack.c - Refs:
refs/directory for ref storage backends
The project is ~600K lines of C, built with Makefile, and uses autoconf for configuration.
What are you exploring here — studying git internals, contributing a patch, or something else?
