PwnGitManager is a Python-based tool for security professionals to exploit exposed .git repositories on web servers during penetration tests. It enables targeted extraction of files like configuration files or source code without downloading the entire repository, reducing detection risk. The tool helps identify and retrieve sensitive data left accessible in misconfigured version control systems.
Penetration testers, red teamers, and security researchers who encounter exposed .git directories during web application assessments.
