Export commit history

General tool for exporting and publishing commits history for some period, (by email configured in git) from given projects. Works in two modes:

1. Manual mode - you have manually execute command and publish results to your nelson server.
2. Automated mode - runs script repeatedly in background which exports and publishes your commits every month.

Manual mode

Install

yarn

Configure

git config user.email "MY_NAME@example.com"
mkdir projects
# create symlinks to your projects (with UNIX shell)
ln -s ~/path-to-your-project/example projects/ 
# create symlinks to your projects (as administrator on WINDOWS - CMD)
mklink projects\PROJECT_NAME ~/path-to-your-project/example

Alternatively, link all your projects at once and exclude some

ln -s ~/Sites projects
echo my-private-project >>excluded.txt

Run

First time you need to run:

npm start

After that, the library will be installed and you will be able to use it from now on through:

export-commits

Automated mode

Install

Requirements: node v8 or higher

 bash -c "curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/syzygypl/export-commits/master/install.sh > /tmp/export-commits && bash \"/tmp/export-commits\"" 

Installs script in ~/.export-commits directory and creates launchctl service in ~/Library/LaunchAgents with name com.syzygy.export-commits

Configure

mkdir ~/.export-commits/projects
# create symlinks to your projects
# ln -s ~/Sites/example.com ~/.export-commits/projects/ 

Excluded functionality works in same way

Logs

Logs are located in ~/.export-commits/log.log and ~/.export-commits/error.log

Development

Dont use single rm in file called publishing - it may result in whole smb server destruction :)
