Hey, anyone know of a tool / service for visualizing git commits ?
i.e. I have about 6 or 7 repos on bitbucket that i’ve been working on for a client, and would like to show them this information in a time series chart / calendar
d
would
git log
work for you ?
also, give commitizen a look, maybe it'll suit you in the future: https://www.npmjs.com/package/commitizen @pcooney10

Thanks for the replies @Dukuo!
git log
works, but i was looking for a tools to help visualize this data (hundreds of commits across 7 repos)
d
a quick google search gave me this
pretty dynamic as well
p
Thank you, that is helpful as well
Essentially was just looking for something that visualized git commit history & plotted it a time series so I could show that info to non-devs
This is another solution, platform agnostic: https://github.com/IonicaBizau/git-stats
d
that's a nice project! thanks @pcooney10

both of these clients are very good if you want to look at git history, and how a particular commit was merged in
Finally, if you're using VS Code as an editor, there's an extension called "Git History (git log)" that'll give you similar train-line diagrams of the git commit history

thanks for the link @mpicard, hey @pcooney10 how did you managed to get
git-stats
working with a local git repository ?
p
Not in front of of my computer but something like 'npm install -g git-stats'
d
oh thanks, I got it working right after 😆 by doing
git-stats-importer -e <mailto:my@email.com|my@email.com>
before running
git-stats
(note that you need to
npm install git-stats-importer -g
before)
p
Ok, I didn’t need to do that for some reason
