git-summary

A script to provide git summary, a command to print a summary of git author contributions.

Screenshot showing git summary output

You can provide an author as an argument to see a summary of only that author's contributions or leave it off for a summary from all authors.

Note: git-summary is not a part of (or affiliated with) git.

Installing

Use ./configure to set install prefix if desired.

Then make install.

There is also an AUR package that I maintain.

Options

You can provide a select set of options which are used directly by git log.

  • --after=<date>/--since=<date>

    • Only show a summary of commits more recent than the given date.

  • --until=<date>/--before=<date>

    • Only show a summary of commits older than the given date.

See the included manpage for more (man git-summary).

Colors

If you have git configured to print in color (using color.ui) than git-summary will also. It will print author additions using the value of color.diff.new (defaulting to green) and it will print author deletions using the value of color.diff.old (defaulting to red).

See man git-config for more about configuring colors in git.
