Git Commits Visualizer (gitcs
shortly) is a command-line tool that allows developers to analyze their local Git repositories and generate a visual contributions graph. This tool proves valuable for developers working across multiple Git services like GitHub and GitLab (because there are already graphs provided online by each of them, but each has it's own data, this tool works locally, so no matter where you've pushed the project, commits will count), enabling them to visualize contributions seamlessly, even in offline or disconnected environments.
- Go
- Git
Ensure that you have Go installed on your machine before installing this tool. Execute the following command:
go install github.com/knbr13/gitcs@latest
Alternatively, if you don't have Go installed, download the latest release from this repository.
The basic usage of this tool is to just run it, it will generate a graph of commits from the last 6 months.
> gitcs -path "/home/user/dev"
These commits are committed by your global Git email address, but you can also use the -email flag to show commits for another Git email.
> gitcs -email "email@example.com" -path "/home/user/dev"
By default, the tool displays commits from the last 6 months, but you can configure this using the since
and until
flags.
> gitcs -since "2023-10-24" -until "2024-01-15" -path "/home/user/dev"
- If no global Git email is set on your machine, then you have to specify it using the
-email
flag. - The since and until flags don't need to be specified together.
