git-standup is a command-line tool and developer activity tracker that parses Git logs to generate summarized text reports of work completed over specific time periods. It functions as a reporting utility that scans Git repositories to extract metadata and author activity for use in progress reviews and status updates.
The tool differentiates itself by the ability to scan multiple repositories through recursive directory discovery and the capacity to synchronize remote states before analysis. It utilizes regular expression filtering to include or exclude specific authors and branches, and employs temporal filtering based on work-week definitions and date ranges.
The project provides capabilities for commit metadata analysis and activity summarization, transforming raw git history into formatted reports. These functions cover author-based and branch-based filtering to isolate specific changes across a defined search scope.
