Repo Linked – A Git tool that watches your workspace and writes commits (youtube.com)
1 points by estrellajosem 366 days ago
Hey HN — I built a lightweight desktop tool called Repo Linked to simplify managing local repos.

It watches your workspace, shows live file changes, lets you preview Git diffs, and uses AI to generate clean, consistent commit messages — all in one window.

You also get quick links to common tasks like opening the repo on GitHub, switching branches, or jumping to PRs — no more hunting around.

Fast, local, and focused on keeping your Git history tidy.

Would love feedback from anyone looking to speed up their Git workflow.

Looks really cool, would be great to try it out. How much will you likely be charging for this product?
Thanks! I’ll have a free tier, but advanced features (like commit message generation) do have a usage cost, so I'm targeting $5–10/month, depending on usage patterns. During beta, the focus is on getting it into as many hands as possible and learning from real-world usage.

I appreciate the interest and would love for you to try it out — aiming for July 7 launch!
