A local-first Git workflow tool for reviving branches as live Docker previews, comparing agent attempts side by side, and planning safe cleanup without uploading source code.
01 / How it works
01
Source stays on the developer’s machine while the interface provides a coherent operational view.
02
Rendered previews and branch context make it easier to judge working software, not just commit messages.
03
Cleanup remains planned and reviewable, with destructive actions separated from discovery.
02 / The problem
Long-running repositories accumulate stale branches, abandoned agent attempts, and uncertain cleanup decisions. Existing Git tooling shows history, but rarely gives teams a safe way to revive and compare the actual applications behind that history.
03 / The approach
GitReaper treats every branch as a reviewable product state. It can revive branches as isolated Docker previews, place competing attempts side by side, and keep cleanup as an explicit plan instead of an automatic destructive action.
