GitQL is a SQL-like query language with an in-memory query engine, implemented in Rust, that executes queries directly on .git files without converting them to a database. It ships as an SDK of libraries so developers can build custom tools to run SQL-like queries over arbitrary data sources, with support for grouping, ordering, aggregation, window functions, and user-defined types and functions.

Use cases

• query git commit history with SQL
• find most frequent commit authors in a repository
• analyze which files change most often in a git repo
• build a custom SQL query tool for my own data source
• run SQL-like queries on local git files without a database
• list branches and tags with filters and ordering

When to choose

• you want to analyze local git repositories with familiar SQL syntax
• you need an embeddable in-memory query engine to query custom data sources
• you want extensible query features like user-defined types, functions, and window functions

When to avoid

• you need a full production SQL database with persistence and transactions
• you need to query remote git hosting APIs rather than local .git files
• you need joins across large external datasets
