A script to extract a list of all recent commits from most recently active branches of a Git repository.
Execute make to install all required scripts.
Add a this-day alias to your ~/.gitconfig; it should look something like this after the edits:
[user]
name = John Doe
email = john.doe@example.com
[alias]
this-day = "!f() { /usr/local/lib/git-this-day/what-have-i-done-today.sh $@; }; f"
Execute make uninstall to remove the script from your system.
The script depends on:
- Git (obviously; at least in version 2.11.1)
- BASH (any version in 4.x line)
- xargs (from GNU findutils; version at least 4.6.0)
The script also depends on you having an email configured in ~/.gitconfig as
it tracks your commits by email.
The following environment variables are used to configure the script.
Default: 40
How many branches should be analysed? Set this to a reasonable number. A good default is the number of branches you usually update throughout the day plus 20% (to cover especially busy days).
Special value all will make the script scan all branches (instead of only the N most recent ones) for
fresh commits.
Default: git config --get user.email
Email that will be used to track commits.
