branch-commits

Show changes for bundle of commits in branch.

If we know last commit of previous bundle then we take all commits after that. In Gitlab CI previous commit SHA may be in CI_COMMIT_BEFORE_SHA environment variable (see Predefined variables reference).

If we dont have previous commit then we take only commits for single branch. Signle branch means that commit belongs only one branch. Here it is mandatory to have a complete local copy of the repository with all branches.

# --- show command help
$ smyg branch-commits --help

# --- if you just clone the example repository, the entire commit list will be displayed (from Initial commit)
#     this is because only one branch is locally received and all commits belongs to it
$ smyg branch-commits

codechanges

Show total added and deleted lines count for current ref.

# --- show command help
$ smyg codechanges --help

# --- changes for current ref
$ smyg codechanges
Ratio (%):         11
Added lines:      107
Deleted lines:     12

# --- code changes between commits
$ smyg codechanges --from-commit 3a085582e8df7c1d622c412eb54eb5ee96e82c48  \

Ratio (%):         42
Added lines:       26
Deleted lines:     11

codechurn

Show count of added lines and count of deleted lines from those that were added. Displays the level of work that was not released.

Ideally, it should coincide with the codechanges for whole project history. For complex branching it may slightly different.

# --- show command help
$ smyg codechurn --help

# --- churn for current ref (equal with codechanges, it is expected)
smyg codechurn
Ratio (%):         11
Added lines:      107
Deleted lines:     12

# --- churn from specified commit (not equal with codechanges, it is expected)
$ smyg codechurn --from-commit 44c6334f38fe796f38c39e1d11a8d19925684926 \

Prometheus Metrics

You can push metrics to Prometheus PushGateway. Recommended to use Aggregation Gateway like https://github.com/zapier/prom-aggregation-gateway.

commit and branch_commits is a Counter type, codechanges and codechurn - Gauge.

You must specify environment variables PUSHGATEWAY_URL and PROJECT_NAME and command option --push-metrics to send metrics. For basic auth access specify PUSHGATEWAY_USERNAME and PUSHGATEWAY_PASSWORD.

$ git checkout main

$ docker run --rm -p 8080:80 ghcr.io/zapier/prom-aggregation-gateway:v0.7.0

$ PUSHGATEWAY_URL=localhost:8080 PROJECT_NAME=example_project \
    smyg commit --push-metrics
