Welcome to the floss-toolbox wiki!

This a a kind of toolbox for GitHub administrators or opensource guys who need to have a look inside Git histories or source code files. This tool is not (yet) perfect, so feel free to submit evolutions!

The principle is quite simple: scripts written in Shell, Ruby and Python in the one side, and files or git logs on the other side.

Shell, Ruby and Python are quite interesting if we want to deal with files and big amount of data.

Some caveats: maybe some features won't work perfectly on non-macOS system (not fully tests on GNU/Linux nor Windows shell). The shell in use is bash. And unit tests have not been implemented yet.

So... be nice :)

You can find here the a small introduction with details about environment. This wiki provides also details about "digging" features, and "more common" features using GitHub API, GitHub CLI or gitleaks.
