v0.1.0 — Know what's safe to delete before you delete it

First public release of GitDeclutter: a local-first CLI that classifies stale Git branches as SAFE, REVIEW, KEEP, or PROTECTED, explains why, and can clean them with 30-day recovery.

A merged PR is not enough. GitDeclutter also checks local-only commits, PR head drift, worktrees, and protected patterns.

Install

You need Git to run it. You do not need Go after the binary is on your PATH.
