NAME

       gitstats - git history statistics generator

SYNOPSIS

       gitstats [options] <repository dir> <output dir>

DESCRIPTION

       gitstats is a statistics generator for git(1) repositories. It examines the repository and
       produces some interesting statistics from the history of it. Currently HTML is the only
       output format.

OPTIONS

       -c option=value

       Override a default configuration value. Defaults can be seen by running gitstats without
       parameters.

   Values:
       authors_top
           How many top authors to show.

       commit_begin, commit_end
           Specify a commit range to generate statistics from. You can specify only commit_end
           limit statistics to a certain commit or another branch.

       linear_linestats
           When enabled, the lines of code statistics are collected from linear history.  The
           downside is that commits of long feature branches appear only at the point where a
           merge commit is made.

           If disabled (old behaviour), the problem is that if two branches contain the same
           changes (for example, removal of same lines), the statistics get skewed.

           Defaults to on.

       max_authors
           How many authors to show in the list of authors.

       max_domains
           How many domains to show in domains by commits.

       max_ext_length
           Maximum file extension length.

       processes
           Number of concurrent processes to use when extracting git repository data.

       project_name
           Project name to show on the generated pages. Default is to use basename of the
           repository directory.

       style
           CSS stylesheet to use.

FAQ

       Q: How do I generate statistics of a non-master branch?

       A: Use "-c commit_end=web" parameter.

       Q: I have files in my git repository that I would like to exclude from the statistics, how
       do I do that?

       A: At the moment the only way is to use git-filter-branch(1) to create a temporary
       repository and generate the statistics from that.

EXAMPLES

       Generates statistics from a git repository in "foo" and outputs the result in a directory
       "foo_stats":
             gitstats foo foo_stats

       As above, but only analyzes the last 10 commits:
             gitstats -c commit_begin='HEAD~10' foo foo_stats
