Patterns of commit activity might be shown using unicode sparklines and/or a color scale (foreground and/or background).

"C++ (41.75 %)" seems a lot of ink and space for "C++ 42%".

Reminds me of Ohloh (now OpenHub) but for your own projects and on command line.

Funny fact: actually there is OpenHub[0] app for Android, that is just GitHub client.

BTW, I just curios, is it possible install & use onefetch using Termux[1] on Android?

Imagine one wished to collect interesting repo measures and visualizations. Any suggestions on fruitful places to scavenge?

"<This tool> has a nice one." "I frequently find myself checking a repo for <this measure>, and wish it was automated." "<Here's> a pretty way to present <measure>."

“gource” is pretty cool. It generates an animated history of all commits, visualized as authors pushing into files.

It[1] has a surprising large number of videos...[2]

Hmm, the documentation supports their creation.[3] "Encourage your community to create videos" as a way to raise awareness of a code analytics tool... I'd not thought of that.

I just touch it - and it panicked :-/[0]

Nice! In the 2nd screenshot, how is it showing the image? Is that a terminal that can render images, or some clever conversion to ascii art [there's some ascii art related code in the onefetch repo].

I think it's iTerm-specific.

this is possible with sixels, if you are really into it

It uses `kitty` terminal's built in support for images. [0][1]

Note: iTerm2 also has its own image display protocol and for something more generic there is Sixel or w3mimgdisplay (from w3m).

I know this won't be an accurate representation, but sometimes I want to know how many hours I've spent on a repository.

I used git hours for this [0], but it's not well maintained anymore (has some problem on newer node version). I'm curious whether anyone else need this functionality.

An option to ignore some of the directories of the repository would be a nice addition (ex: ignoring ./vendor/ in golang repository).

Otherwise, nice tool, thanks for creating and sharing it.

What's with the color palette at the bottom? Can I turn off the graphic?

Overall this is almost certainly becoming a staple of my toolbox.

Interestingly enough the color palette doesn't appear for me :)

Wunderbar.

Hahaha. Sorry, that wasn't meant to be a brag. I just know that I haven't turned anything off, so maybe it's a behaviour of a particular commit?

I installed via Cargo, version 1.6.5.

It's trying to be like neofetch for showing off your terminal theme on /r/unixporn

Is there a mac binary or homebrew formula?

`cargo install onefetch` should work

I thought this committed all my terminal commands to a git repo. It doesn’t but now I want something like that.

You could do that with a GitHub action quite easily.

I hashed together something like this in my dotfiles a few years ago. Big parts were logging each command run to my own history files (marked with machine and date), rotating those logs, and a cronjob to sync it with GitHub.

Only took a few hours to set up.

Do you mean bash/zsh profiles or recent command history?

Command history

script -f filename ?
