Generating statistics from Git repository

Question

I m looking for some good tools scripts that allow me to generate a few statistics from a git repository  I ve seen this feature on some code hosting sites  and they contained information like      commits per author commits per day week year etc  lines of code over time graphs     much more   Basically I just want to get an idea how much my project grows over time  which developer commits most code  and so on

repostat is an enhanced fork of gitstats tool   I m not sure if it s in any way related to the project with the same name on pypi  so your best bet is to download the latest release from GitHub and install it in your Python environment   As of November 2019  I was able to use v1 2 0 under Windows 7  after making gnuplot available in PATH     usage  repostat  -h   -v   -c CONFIG FILE   --no-browser   --copy-assets                  git repo output path  Git repository desktop analyzer  Analyze and generate git statistics in HTML format  positional arguments  git repo              Path to git repository output path           Path to an output directory  optional arguments  -h  --help            show this help message and exit -v  --version         show program s version number and exit -c CONFIG FILE  --config-file CONFIG FILE                         Configuration file path --no-browser          Do not open report in browser --copy-assets         Copy assets  images  css  etc   into report folder                          report becomes relocatable

Just yesterday I ve added my git-analytics docker-compose file  which builds up several containers to start analyzing multiple git repositories against each other   It is able to show you commit statistics over time about the author and also several diff statistics   You can use the provided angular client and also kibana to visualize the statistics   https   github com alexejsailer git-analytics-docker  It will be improved over time   Angular Client Screenshot    Kibana Client Screenshot

If your project is on GitHub  you now  April 2013  have Pulse  see  Get up to speed with Pulse     It is more limited  and won t display all the stats you might need  but is readily available for any GitHub project      Pulse is a great way to discover recent activity on projects    Pulse will show you who has been actively committing and what has changed in a project s default branch         You can find the link to the left of the nav bar      Note that there isn t  yet  an API to extract that information

And if you prefer hosted solution  you should check out Open Hub  formerly Ohloh net   It is nice  but don t expect large statistics
