git-ofrenda builds a memorial altar for deleted repository files, with epitaphs written by a local Gemma model

A developer released git-ofrenda, a tool that scans a repository's git history for files deleted and never restored. It gathers each file's life facts from git, including creation and removal dates, authors, the deleting commit message, and commit counts. A locally run open-weight model, Gemma 3, then writes an epitaph and short remembrance for each one, running on ordinary CPUs through Ollama or llama.cpp. The output is a static web page with a headstone per file, plus an interactive mode that lets users question a deleted file, and the author pointed it at the Express.js repository as an example. The project is a single MIT-licensed Python script with no external dependencies, and it is framed as a Hacktoberfest AI challenge entry.
