Visualising your git history
There's a fantastic project called Gource, which takes your commit history and generates a visualisation of who changed what and when.
I uploaded a visualisation of changes within my dotfiles repo sometime ago, and thought I'd share the scripts I used to generate the movie.
There's a Perl script I found online that will download avatars from Gravatar for each of your contributors, and then a wrapper script that generates a movie with ffmpeg.
Instead of pasting the code you can find it in this gist.
