SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you rename, extract, split, move, or restructure code without breaking hidden dependencies across a large codebase.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Safe multi-file refactors: Renames and structural changes guided by a dependency graph to reduce missed call sites.
  • Dependency impact mapping: Identifies upstream or downstream dependents before changing symbols.
  • Execution-flow context: Finds execution flows and incoming/outgoing references to plan updates and verify scope.
  • Use case example: Renaming validateUser to authenticateUser while updating callers, interfaces, and tests to keep the LoginFlow and TokenRefresh flows consistent.

Quick Start

Use gitnexus-refactoring to rename validateUser to authenticateUser and preview the full set of edits before applying them.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely rename a function across a large codebase without breaking hidden dependencies?▼

To safely rename a function, you map its symbol relationships and execution flows using a dependency graph to identify all upstream and downstream dependents. This impact analysis helps you preview edits and plan an update order before applying changes.

What is dependency impact analysis for code refactoring?▼

Dependency impact analysis identifies upstream and downstream dependents before you change symbols. By mapping execution flows and incoming references, it verifies the refactor scope and reduces missed call sites during multi-file restructures.

How do I split a service or extract a module while keeping execution flows consistent?▼

To extract a module or split a service safely, you use dependency graphs to map execution flows and incoming references. This context helps you plan the update order and verify the refactor scope to keep flows consistent.

Can I preview the full set of edits before applying a multi-file code restructuring?▼

Yes, you can preview edits before applying a multi-file restructuring. By querying symbol relationships and execution flows, the tool detects necessary changes and lets you verify the refactor scope beforehand.

Do I need a dependency graph to move code across files or layers?▼

Yes, you need a dependency graph to move code across files or layers safely. It maps execution flows and incoming references to identify hidden dependencies, ensuring you update all callers and keep the refactor scope verified.
