Nice! I really like tools like this.

It might be nice if the service could automatically scrape the input text for its validity and possibly offers additional info of the different commands.

git, git log, etc. could all be defined and explained in the above. Along with any alerts that the command could be potentially dangerous, like if it starts with sudo.

There is a site that does something similar! Could be cool to link to it for each part of the command!

Alright! It now includes a link to explain your command!

Nice! I feel like this is helpful in differentiating from a gist/pastebin type things.

Love the concept, love the domain name. It's the kind of thing that needs ongoing iteration because it's all about convenience which is a hard nut to crack.
