repo-tidy helps tame messy repos by safely cleaning junk, archiving stray files, and giving a clear git-state plan, all with a conservative, reversible workflow.
Ask repo-tidy to run in interactive mode to scan your repo, propose a plan, and apply safe cleanup.

Safe git repository cleanup requires a plan-driven workflow that stages changes, scans for junk, and archives stray files. Using a pre-flight git stash backup protects active work before removing misplaced files and improving git hygiene.
The best way to archive stray files in a code repo is using a five-phase process that scans for misplaced files, proposes an explicit cleanup plan, and moves junk to archive storage. This plan-then-execute workflow ensures files are safely stored rather than auto-deleted.
To tidy a mixed repository, apply type-based cleaning rules that identify the repo as code, docs, data, or general. The cleanup workflow scans for junk and misplaced files specific to that repository type before proposing a safe, archival-based organization plan.
Yes, repo-tidy supports data and documentation repositories alongside code projects. It identifies the repository type during scanning and applies type-specific cleaning rules to handle the unique hygiene requirements of mixed, data, or doc-centric repos.
Yes, you can review the cleanup plan before execution. The workflow explicitly separates scanning and planning from execution, proposing a detailed plan of junk removal and archival actions that you must approve before any changes are applied.
You should avoid unguarded automatic cleanup when working with tracked files or critical archives. A safe tidying process uses guardrails to prevent touching tracked files, avoids auto-deleting archives, and requires a pre-flight git stash to ensure reversibility.
