Show HN: GitType – A typing game that uses your own Git repo as practice text

I built a small Rust CLI game called GitType.
It’s a typing practice tool that takes your own Git repository and turns the code inside into typing material. Instead of random words, you type through real functions, comments, and code you’ve written — making practice feel closer to real-world programming.
Features: - Works directly in the terminal (no GUI required) - Pulls text from any local Git repo - Tracks WPM and accuracy - Keeps a history of your past runs (so you can see progress over time) - Fun ranking titles based on your score

Would love feedback from fellow devs — especially around the scoring system and ideas for new modes. :)
