Dura
Dura is a Git backup tool and versioning safeguard that monitors multiple repositories to automatically create and restore point-in-time snapshots of modified files. It functions as a background process that snapshots uncommitted changes to a dedicated backup branch to prevent data loss from crashes or accidental deletions.
The utility provides state recovery by checking out historical snapshots from these hidden branches, allowing work to be restored without altering the primary development history or the current staging area.
The system covers multi-repository monitoring and automated change tracking across different directories, ensuring that temporary work states are preserved independently of the main project index.
