Description

A fast tool for rewriting Git repository history, replacing many uses of git filter-branch. It can remove files, rewrite paths, alter commits, and clean repository history at scale.

Use it only after making backups and understanding history rewriting. Rewritten history changes commit IDs and can disrupt collaborators if pushed without coordination.
