Performance/Speed
Hello -- first let me say this is an awesome tool and thanks for creating and updating this!
I'm wondering if you have a suggestion to speed up the computation and/or have plans to make this faster in the future.
I have a repo that has tens of thousands of commits from 30 different authors. I've git_stats running on this repo for many days (on my latest Mac Pro) and it's still going.
I tried subsetting to a commit range, which isnt seeming to have an effect (as in, it still looks like it's going to take a long long while). Here is my command line
git_stats generate --path=<MY REP PATH> --out-path=./git_stats --first-commit-sha=<SOME SHA> --last-commit-sha=<SOME OTHER SHA>
I am seeing a different set of logs if I do and dont use the sha params. However, when I use the sha params i also get this error:
git show --shortstat --oneline --no-renames 268670637 -- . fatal: Needed a single revision
I've double checked those sha ranges. That range is just 4 commits so I was hoping that would be fast.
Any ideas on all this?
Update: the sha range command did just finish, it just took a lot longer than I would expect for analyzing 4 commits. Will try with a decently expanded range and see if it can finish in a reasonable amount of time...
