dstask

dstask is a terminal-based task and note manager that uses Git for storing data and synchronization. Developers use it to track tasks and maintain notes organized by task, with support for markdown formatting. The tool features a context system to filter and focus on relevant tasks, and allows users to add priorities and tags to organize work. It provides a command-line interface with various task views and reports, and includes functionality to open URLs found within tasks directly in a browser. Users can mark tasks as started, stopped, or paused to track their current work status.

dstask is developed by naggie and is written in Go, which allows it to be compiled as a single cross-platform binary. Because it uses Git for data management, synchronization, conflict resolution, and undo operations are built in without additional setup. The tool is licensed under the MIT license, making it free and open source for developers to use and modify.
