gitfreq

Adds a git freq command to use with spark.

For example:

git freq $(date '+%Y-%m-%d') -7 | spark

That creates a sparkline for the last seven days of activity in a git repo.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/jkcclemens/gitfreq
cd gitfreq

Now, you can either update your PATH and run cargo install, or you can do the following:

cargo build --release
cd target/release
strip git-freq # optional. usage varies by system
cp git-freq /usr/local/bin/

Usage

git freq [reference_date] [days]

reference_date is a date in the YYYY-mm-dd format, which is the date on which days_since acts.

days_since is the amount of days relative to reference_date to look for commits.

So, git freq 2000-01-30 -5 would look for commits between 2000-01-25 and 2000-01-30.

git freq 2000-01-25 5 would look for commits between 2000-01-25 and 2000-01-30, as well.

Warning

This is the third language I've rewritten this program in, and two of which (including this) have been learning projects.

I wrote this to begin learning Rust. I will improve it over time, as I improve in the language.
