Those animations are the iron, gold, diamond, and netherite swords with all of their possible combinations.
For the animation to work properly, ensure that you have both the Tool Trims resource pack and Animated Items resource pack turned on, with Animated Items going above Tool Trims in the resource pack list.
Here's an example of the Diamond Sword with 4 possible trimmings (in gold):

Order of trimmings from left to right: Linear, Tracks, Charge, Frost
Animated Items comes with animation support for the Combat Expansion data pack. The new swords from the data pack (katanas, claymores, and daggers) have been animated, as well as the cutlass weapon.
The animations are the same as the iron, gold, diamond, and netherite swords from the vanilla game.
Some Examples:

Totem of Undying

Note that this video showcases version 1.2
OptiFine is not required for this resource pack to work. Only versions of Minecraft starting from 1.5 and above, no versions before 1.5 will work since texture animations were added in Minecraft 1.5.
For resource pack versions 1.4 and above, the Continuity or OptiFine mod is needed only for emissive textures. If you do not want emissive textures, then neither of those mods is required.
If there are any issues or you would like to suggest an addition, please report/suggest them on the GitHub repository.
