Ensure your 160-bit git commit hashes are Number Theoretic compliant.
A tool that fuzzes your commit messages until the resulting SHA-1 hash is a prime number when interpreted as a 160-bit integer.
Because your commits deserve mathematical rigor.

Mathematical Rigor: SHA-1 hashes are 160-bit integers. The Prime Number Theorem dictates that primes are abundant (~1 in 111 hashes), yet standard git commits rely on randomness, ignoring the elegance of indivisibility.
Indivisibility: A composite number can be broken down. It is weak. A prime number stands alone. By forcing your commit hash to be prime, you are ensuring that your code changes correspond to an atomic, unbreakable coordinate in the number line.
Because you can: The global distributed compute grid is mostly wasted on idle loops. git-prime reclaims those cycles to search for beautiful numbers.
Security Note: Does this increase collision risk?
Technically, yes. Practically, no.
Restricting hashes to prime numbers reduces the search space by a factor of ~111. In information theoretic terms, this reduces the entropy by approximately 7 bits (from 160 to ~153). While we don't recommend this for securing nuclear launch codes (mostly because it uses SHA-1), the probability of an accidental collision remains statistically zero.
But also: shouldn't the global distributed compute grid be used to forward number theoretic random non-goals like primality?
Every developer running git prime-commit contributes cycles to the noble pursuit of finding 160-bit primes hidden in SHA-1 space. It's distributed computing for mathematically pointless but aesthetically satisfying goals.
