## What it is
gg (Git Goodies) is a shell-based CLI wrapper around common git commands that provides workflow shortcuts and enhanced, aesthetically pleasing output such as a quick-glance repository status. It is a single executable script depending only on git.

## Use cases
- shorten common git commands into quick keystrokes
- show a quick glance status of my git repository
- see how many commits I need to push or pull
- make git output more readable and intuitive
- quickly clone my own repositories

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained tooling — the project is deprecated
- you prefer modern git features or built-in git aliases
- you use oh-my-zsh where gg conflicts with an existing alias

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: abandoned
- function: developer-tools, cli
- domain: developer-tools, version-control
- platform: windows, cli
- tags: git, git-shortcuts, shell, workflow, deprecated, command-line, linux, macos
