Git tracks code. eve tracks product.
eve is an open source product history layer built on top of Git. Instead of navigating commits and diffs, it organizes completed work into Snapshots that capture what changed, why it changed, how it was validated, screenshots, documentation, and the Git history behind every product change. Snapshots help everyone involved in building the product understand its evolution, while giving future coding agents structured context for continuing the work.

Hi everyone! I’m Umut, the creator of eve.
Over the past few years my workflow has changed a lot. I spend much less time writing code myself and much more time reviewing what AI coding agents produce. I realized I cared less about individual commits and more about understanding how the product was actually evolving.
That led me to build eve.
The idea is simple: Git remains the source of truth for code, while eve becomes the source of truth for product history. Every completed feature, bug fix, experiment, or release becomes a Snapshot that records not only the underlying commits, but also the reasoning, validation, screenshots, and other context behind the change.
My hope is that these Snapshots make product evolution easier to understand for everyone involved in building the product, while also becoming a reusable context layer for future coding agents.
It’s completely local, open source, and stores everything alongside your repository.
This is the first public release, so I’d genuinely love feedback, whether it’s on the idea itself, the UI, the data model, or the MCP integration. Thanks for taking a look!
