Gitinspector: A Glimpse into Git Repo Statistics—Old but Gold!
Gitinspector is a statistical analysis tool for git repositories. The default analysis shows general statistics per author, which can be complemented with a timeline analysis that shows the workload and activity of each author.
It offers a breakdown of contributions by author, lines added or removed, file types modified, and more. Gitinspector can generate reports in formats like HTML, making it useful for those who want an easy overview of their repository activity.
Under normal operation, it filters the results to only show statistics about a number of given extensions and by default only includes source files in the statistical analysis.
This tool was originally written to help fetch repository statistics from student projects in the course Object-oriented Programming Project (TDA367/DIT211) at Chalmers University of Technology and Gothenburg University.
