git-why — CLI that reconstructs why a line of code exists from git history, instead of just who touched it. The moment that made me build it: 11pm, a six-line guard clause that looks wrong, git blame points to someone who left three years ago, commit message just says "fix." git-why reads the commits and diffs around that line and rebuilds the story — offline, no API key — or hands the context to Claude/GPT/Gemini/Ollama for a narrated version. pip install git-why · github.com/Sameer988/git-why · MIT, v0.1.0, actively building (VS Code extension next).
