🚀 Day 132 of Daily Git Commands! Ever wondered who really owns what in your codebase? Today's command is a game-changer for understanding code ownership patterns across large projects! 📊 git log --pretty=format:"%an %ae %ad %s" --date=short --numstat | awk 'NF==4{author=$1" "$2; date=$3} NF==3{files[author][date]+=$1+$2} END{for(a in files) for(d in files[a]) print a,d,files[a][d]}' This powerful combination extracts commit history with author details and file statistics, then processes it through awk to calculate how many lines each author has modified per day. Perfect for team analysis and understanding contribution patterns! 🔍 💡 Pro Tip: Remember this as "git log + numstat + awk magic" - the three components that turn raw git data into meaningful ownership insights! Use Cases: 🌱 Beginner: Track your daily coding activity to see your contribution patterns and identify your most productive days 👨💼 Professional #1: Analyze team workload distribution before sprint planning to ensure balanced task allocation across team members 👨💼 Professional #2: Generate code ownership reports for legacy system maintenance - identify subject matter experts for different modules during critical bug fixes Common applications: Code ownership analysis, Team performance metrics, Legacy system documentation, Contribution tracking 📈 What's your favorite method for analyzing code ownership?
