Simple statistics generator for git

Status

This project was originally a port of my darcsstats project to git. It worth to mention that it was originally inspired by Juli Mallett’s cvstat.

It supports all the features which are provided by cvstat, plus a number of extras. See the 'What works' section for a list of them.

If you want something more complex, then try out gitstat. It is a mix of php and perl, requires mysql, etc. Obviously it has more features, but you may say that it’s bloated. Then gitstats is for you.

Note	These days I usually just use git shortlog -s -n if I want to get a toplist, so I no longer actively maintain this project. Patches are still welcome.

How to set it up

You need to have a copy of config.py in the current dir. Probably you want to have a config for each project to set the aliases and ignores. Here is the format of ignores:

	ignore = ['A B <foo@server.com>', 'C D <bar@server.com>']

If you know Python, this will be familiar to you.

The aliases directive is a Python dictionary:

	aliases = {
			'X Y <old@server.com>': 'X Y <new@server.com>'
			}

Running it

Then all you need is to run gitstats:

$ python /path/to/gitstats.py ~/git/myrepo.git output.html

What works

• Features supported by cvstat.

• Ignore support. This is handy when you import a cvs project to git and there were an anonymous user in cvs.

• Alias support, so that your stats are not lost when you change your mail address.

• Total number of commits.

What needs to be done (aka. TODO)

• None at this time.
