README

This project is an educational re-implementation of core Git functionality using Python, built purely for learning how Git works under the hood. It mimics the essential commands like init, add, status, and commit, giving you a hands-on understanding of concepts such as staging, hashing, object storage, and repository structure.

Disclaimer: This is still a work in progress, expect rough edges, bugs, and missing features. Read (and run) at your own risk!
