  Hog (HDL on Git) is an open-source tool designed to manage Git-based HDL
repositories. It aims to simplify HDL project development, maintenance, and
versioning by using Git to guarantee synthesis and implementation
reproducibility and binary file traceability. This is ensured by linking each
produced binary file to a specific Git commit, embedding the Git commit hash
(SHA) into the binary file via HDL generics stored in firmware registers. Hog
is released twice a year, in January and in June. We present here the latest
stable version 2023.1, which introduces major novel features, such as the
support for Microchip Libero IDE, and the capability to run the Hog Continuous
Integration (Hog-CI) workflow with GitHub Actions. A plan to integrate Hog with
the OpenCores repository is also described, which is expected to be completed
for Hog release 2023.2
