Below is my reply to a previous message by Will Palmer. I think, it would be nice to have a tool, which output all the different stats about the repo, maybe even in a gui. But it definitely doesn't belong in the Git project. -- Best regards, Alexei Sholik ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Alexei Sholik Date: 17 March 2011 16:45 Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] Add Author and Documentation sections to git-for-each-ref.txt To: Will Palmer On 17 March 2011 16:20, Will Palmer wrote: > On Wed, 2011-03-09 at 14:14 +0200, Alexei Sholik wrote: >> ..................

The Future Git should be portable and shiny ;)
