Git MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server for Git repository interaction and automation. This server provides tools to read, search, and manipulate Git repositories via Large Language Models.

Install

uvx mcp-server-git --repository path/to/git/repo

Example config (Cursor / Claude Desktop)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "git": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-git",
        "--repository",
        "path/to/git/repo"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code uses "servers" instead of "mcpServers" (why). On Windows, wrap npx with cmd /c (fix).
