git-time-machine is a user interface (often as an editor plugin or UI extension) that allows users to browse a file’s history visually, stepping back and forth through revisions in Git like a “time machine.” It shows changes to a file over time, lets users compare older states, and often provides diff and blame views to understand how the file evolved. Instead of just opening a commit log or diff, git-time-machine gives an interactive, incremental experience where you can slide through versions and see content changes in place. This is especially helpful when diagnosing when bugs were introduced, exploring regression contexts, or reviewing code evolution visually. For projects with many commits, it accelerates historical exploration, and it is commonly integrated into editors so developers can use it in their working environment.
