Introduction

Git Unearth is an AI-powered git blame enhancer that helps you understand WHY code was written, not just WHO wrote it.

The Problem

Traditional git blame tells you:

  • Who wrote a line
  • When it was written
  • The commit hash

But it doesn't tell you:

  • Why the code exists
  • What business requirement drove it
  • Whether it's intentional or a workaround
  • How it evolved over time

The Solution

Git Unearth traces the decision history of code:

  1. Data Collection — Parse git commands into structured data
  2. Semantic Analysis — Group commits, classify intent
  3. Narrative Generation — Explain with evidence chains and confidence levels

Confidence Levels
