- sbankowi 7mo agoYAGOT (Yet Another GOT)
- bityard 7mo agoProbably taken already, better use YAGOT-NG (Next Generation) just to be safe.

- Imustaskforhelp 7mo agouGOT / uGOTme? (sort of like the idea behind uTorrent) but I will agree that sbankowi's idea of Yet another got is great as well. +1 to that as well.
- allknowingfrog 7mo agoWell, find and sed have modern "fd" and "sd" alternatives. Naming it "gt" allows you to claim that your version save 33% compared to typing "git".

- gritzko 7mo agoDon't forget to check the new name with Claude: Are there revision control systems named "got"? Searched the web Searched the web Yes! There is at least one notable revision control system named "Got" — specifically Game of Trees (Got), developed for OpenBSD. Game of Trees (Got) is a version control system which prioritizes ease of use and simplicity over flexibility. Gameoftrees It's actively developed — version 0.123 was released on February 25, 2026 Gameoftrees , just yesterday. Got uses Git repositories to store versioned data. At present, Got supports local version control operations only, and Git can be used for any functionality which has not yet been implemented in Got. It will always remain possible to work with both Got and Git on the same repository. Lobsters So "Got" is essentially a friendlier, simpler front-end to Git's underlying storage format, designed with OpenBSD's philosophy of simplicity and clean code in mind.
