RepoForge packages repository discovery, GitHub slugging, and fast-forward refresh helpers for archive-oriented Rust tools.

RepoForge is part of the Knott Dynamics public software line. RepoForge packages repository discovery, GitHub slugging, and fast-forward refresh helpers for archive-oriented Rust tools.

What It Does

RepoForge is a small Rust library for repository archive helper logic. It focuses on safe repository discovery, GitHub slug normalization, and fast-forward refresh behavior that archive tools can reuse before clone or update operations.

Why It Matters

Repository archiving should make target identity and refresh behavior explicit. RepoForge keeps those primitives portable so Thesa and companion tooling do not duplicate fragile repository parsing rules.

Connected Surfaces

Operator Notes

  • Use RepoForge when an archive workflow needs repository target parsing or GitHub slug normalization.
  • Keep destructive or authenticated clone behavior in the calling tool so this crate stays focused on safe helper primitives.
  • Track the 0.1.x line closely because it crossed the public threshold on the same day it launched.

Release Shape

The current public build tracks RepoForge v0.1.9, 119 package downloads, and 10 published versions.
