What is it?

Git AI tracks AI-generated code inside Git repositories. Once installed, each AI-written line is linked to the agent, model, and session that produced it, so the intent and requirements behind code are preserved alongside the commit history.

Attribution is stored in Git Notes, and the extension updates it when commits are squashed, merged, rebased, stashed, cherry-picked, or amended. It works with Git clients and the Git CLI without per-repo setup or git hooks, and it runs locally without a login. A `git ai blame` command works as a drop-in replacement for `git blame` and shows AI attribution per line, while `git ai stats` reports the share of AI-written code across commits.

The project supports a range of coding agents including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and Windsurf, and a community VS Code extension displays attribution in the editor gutter.

Key features

  • 01Links each AI-written line to its agent, model, and prompt session.
  • 02Stores attribution in Git Notes and keeps it through rebase, squash, and other rewrites.
  • 03Provides `git ai blame` as a drop-in replacement for `git blame`.
  • 04Reports AI-code percentage and accepted rates via `git ai stats`.
  • 05Runs locally with no login and no git hooks or Git wrapping.

Use cases

  • Reviewing which parts of a codebase were written by AI and under what prompts.
  • Measuring AI code share and acceptance rates across a team's commits.
  • Tracing an incident or bug back to the AI session that produced the code.

Quick start

  1. 1

    Run the official install script from the README for your OS (Mac, Linux, WSL, or Windows PowerShell)

  2. 2

    Show AI attribution for a file with git ai blame

    git ai blame /src/log_fmt/authorship_log.rs

Things to know

  • Attribution depends on supported agents reporting their edits; the README lists the agents that are supported.
  • Files created via Bash may not be attributed if the agent is not operating from the repository root.
