About This Server

A Model Context Protocol server for Git repository interaction and automation. This server provides tools to read, search, and manipulate Git repositories via Large Language Models.

Server Information

šŸ“‹ Overview:

The webpage is a directory listing for the `/src/git` directory within the `modelcontextprotocol/servers` GitHub repository. The repository is for Model Context Protocol Servers. The directory appears to contain code related to a git MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. The page provides access to files and subdirectories within `/src/git`, a summary of the repository's purpose, instructions for installation, configuration, and development.


ā­ Key Points:
  • The `modelcontextprotocol/servers` repository hosts code for Model Context Protocol Servers.

  • The `/src/git` directory specifically relates to a git MCP server.

  • The git MCP server facilitates interaction and automation of Git repositories using Large Language Models.

  • The git MCP server is in early development, with functionality subject to change.

  • Installation methods include using uv, PIP, and Docker.

  • The page provides instructions for configuring the server for use with Claude Desktop and Zed.

  • Debugging can be done using the MCP inspector.


  • šŸ” Main Findings:
  • The `src/git` directory contains the source code for a git-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

  • The git MCP server is intended to allow LLMs to interact with and manipulate Git repositories.

  • The server is under active development.

  • The page focuses on setting up and running the server, either through direct installation or containerization.

  • Installation instructions are provided for various environments, including uv, Docker, and Zed.

šŸŽÆ Conclusion:
The webpage serves as a guide and file directory for the `src/git` component of the `modelcontextprotocol/servers` project, providing essential information for developers interested in utilizing or contributing to the git MCP server, particularly in conjunction with LLMs and tools like Claude and Zed. The project is in its early stages.
