Git Notes
Overview
Git notes attach metadata to commits (or any Git object) without modifying the objects themselves. Notes are stored separately and displayed alongside commit messages.
Core principle: Add information to commits after creation without rewriting history.
Core Concepts
| Concept | Description |
|---|---|
| Notes ref | Storage location, default refs/notes/commits |
| Non-invasive | Notes never modify SHA of original object |
| Namespaces | Use --ref for different note categories |
| Display | Notes appear in git log and git show output |
