Install

As global CLI:

[sudo] npm install -g git-heroes

As a dependency:

npm install --save git-heroes

Usage

Run git-heroes -h for usage:

$ git-heroes -h

  Usage: git-heroes [options] [path]

  Options:

    -h, --help                 output usage information
    -V, --version              output the version number
    -p, --previous <revision>  Include commits after a certain revision
    -c, --current <revision>   Include commits for a certain revision
    -s, --sort <by>            Sort by name, email, commits, added, deleted, sum or diff [sum]
    -a, --asc                  Sort ascending instead of default descending
    -o, --output <type>        Output type [md]
    -n, --names                Use both email and name to identify contributors
    -t, --titles               Show commit titles

The [path] will default to the current working directory.

The --previous and --current options are used as revision range for git log as such:

git log --numstat --no-merges --pretty="<COMMIT>%aN<FIELD>%aE<FIELD>%s<FIELD>" <previous>..<current>

You can leave out --current (which will also remove ..) and only use --previous to set any range you'd like.

Module API

The CLI uses the module API which you can also use directly as:

var heroes = require('git-heroes');

heroes(opts, callback);
