中文文档

Features

This library provides a set of Git operations that can be called through the Model Context Protocol:

• git_status - Get the status of a repository
• git_branches - List branch information
• git_log - Get commit history
• git_time_filtered_log - Get commits within a specific time range
• git_commit - Create a new commit
• git_pull - Pull changes from remote
• git_push - Push changes to remote
• git_diff - View file differences
• git_add - Add file contents to the staging area
• git_reset - Reset the staging area or working tree to a specified state

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/lileeei/mcp-git-tools.git

# Navigate to the directory
cd mcp-git-tools

# Build
cargo build

Usage

Run as a standalone server

cargo run --bin mcp-git-server

This starts an MCP server that interacts with clients through standard input/output.

Use in an MCP client

use mcp_client::{
    client::{ClientCapabilities, ClientInfo, McpClient},
    StdioTransport, Transport, McpService,
};
use std::collections::HashMap;
use std::time::Duration;

// Create a connection to the Git tools server
let transport = StdioTransport::new(
    "path/to/mcp-git-server", 
    vec![], 
    HashMap::new()
);

// Start the transport
let handle = transport.start().await?;
let service = McpService::with_timeout(handle, Duration::from_secs(10));
let mut client = McpClient::new(service);

// Initialize the client
client.initialize(
    ClientInfo {
        name: "my-client".into(),
        version: "1.0.0".into(),
    },
    ClientCapabilities::default(),
).await?;

// Call the git_status tool
let status = client
    .call_tool("git_status", serde_json::json!({ "repo_path": "/path/to/repo" }))
    .await?;

println!("Git status: {:?}", status);

Integrate into your own MCP server

use mcp_git_tools::register_git_tools;
use mcp_server::McpServerBuilder;

// Create a server
let mut builder = McpServerBuilder::new("my-server", "1.0.0");

// Register Git tools
register_git_tools(&mut builder);

// Add other tools...

// Build the server
let server = builder.build();
