## Description

Git stats is a command-line utility and reporting tool that analyzes project activity and generates statistical insights from source code version control data. It functions as a Git history analysis tool and repository analytics generator, processing historical commit logs and file modification patterns to track how codebases grow and change over time.

The application operates through a command-line interface execution pipeline that parses raw repository logs and commit streams directly into structured data records. It includes an incremental activity aggregator that rolls up individual commit records into aggregate statistics grouped by time intervals, authors, and file types, alongside a template-based HTML reporting engine that transforms the calculated metrics into static web pages containing charts and summaries.
