git filter-repo [options]

git filter-repo rewrites Git history with powerful filtering capabilities. It is the officially recommended replacement for the deprecated git filter-branch, offering significantly faster and safer history manipulation.
The tool can remove files, rename paths, strip sensitive data, change authors, and restructure repositories. It prevents common mistakes that git filter-branch was prone to and operates much faster on large repositories.
