About the name

The name is a completely invented word hopefully sounding like a mighty god of an ancient, Southeast Asian primitive people or a similar mighty monster that same primitive people is afraid of.

Instead, it’s just a combination of the command-line tools of Maven and Git: mvn and git. Each character is suffixed with the character a.

In Java code you would write this as:

("mvn" + "git").replaceAll("(.)", "$1a")
=> "mavanagaiata"
