git-dumper

Downloads an HTTP-exposed .git and rebuilds the repository to read its history.

Downloads a Git repository exposed on a web server (a .git folder reachable over HTTP) and rebuilds the full working tree. From there you read the history with git log -p, which often contains credentials, keys and source code that reveal the application logic or the next step. It is the tool you reach for when fuzzing uncovers /.git/.
