That's awesome!
Been playing around with it for the past 20 minutes, it's super useful.

Does git tell you that you don't have the command?

You just need `git-timecard` in your path if that's the case. git will find it.

For the uninitiated with python, how do you run this thing? I tried the exact command lines above, but to no avail.

I installed the python google chart library, as I found in the comments for the timechart file. But I think I'm missing something to teach git to pick up these "extension" commands or what they are.

Thanks,

Yeah, the google chart API seems to be the hard part in a lot of these attempts to plot stuff.

Greetings,

I was curious, and thus inspired, to try this myself. As dustin said, the recipe was pretty straightforward. Understanding that git log --pretty=format:%at was unixtime was the key, and everything fell out from there. (Well, after I'd figured out the fiddly bits of the Google Charts API, and fixed a bug in the gchart gem...)

Check out http://github.com/cyberfox/... (which requires the cyberfox-gchart fork of the gchart gem, btw) for a Ruby example of how to do it.

I can understand why this would be desirable, but I'd rather build something new than rewrite this thing. :)

There's good recipe here for *how* it works, so feel free to port it. :)

If you could convert this to Ruby, and make it a gem, that would be really neat!
