Show HN: CommitCal – View your commit history in calendar

This is a pretty neat idea. I tend to think of and use my calendar to look forward, but every view I have of my calendar shows me some past content. Why not put some useful information there? I considered what my calendar would look like if I threw all of my emails at it but I figured it would get overwhelming unless I filtered them somehow. Maybe the Gmail API will make an email version of your project more feasible.

Anyway, I digress. Some notes:

- I'm only seeing public commits; I realize you don't necessarily want to complicate things with authentication, but I have practically nothing going on publicly. I'd probably rather see what I'm actually up to rather than what the world sees (unless this is supposed to be a tool for me to watch other people's commits, in which case I guess public activity makes sense).

- I might prefer to see activity of repositories in which I'm working rather than individual activity. This is more complicated, but it'd be more worthwhile for me to see if someone else commits something (or many somethings) in the recent past to a project that I'm working on. It would especially give me a reminder that I need to pull in the morning and see what's new.

There are a few approaches to this, and depending on Github's API one might be easier than the other, but I imagine they'd all skin the cat at the end of the day.

Feel free to take or leave my suggestions; either way, cool weekend(?) project.
