Git time tracking

#!/usr/bin/ruby

command = '/usr/bin/git --no-pager log --oneline'

ARGV.each do|a|
  if a.match(/^--after/) 
        command += ' ' + a
  end
end

hours = 0

        output = `#{command}`

        commits = output.split("\n")
        commits.each do |line|

                line.scan(/t\[(.*)\]/) do |r| 
                        r.each { |h| hours += h.to_f }
                end

        end

A script for time tracking using git commits.

• Save the script as an executable (I've called it git-tt)
• Add tags to your commit messages with the amount of hours you've spent, eg. "Implemented foobar feature t[1.5]."
• Run git tt from a git repo to show total hours for that repo.
• Add '--after="2010-03-15"' to show total for commits since the date
