FAQ: Git & Repo Workflows MCPs
What is the difference between the Git MCP and the GitHub MCP?
Git MCP drives the local git binary — status, diff, stage, commit. GitHub MCP uses the GitHub REST API for PRs, issues, and code search. They are complementary, not redundant.
Can the Git MCP create commits?
Yes. It can stage files and create commits with a supplied message. It intentionally does not run git push — pushing is left to a separate, reviewable step.
