• Filter by day:

  By YYYY-MM-DD:

  git activity show 2024-01-01
  # or
  git activity show --date 2024-01-01

  or by name:

  git activity show today
  # or
  git activity show --date today
  
  git activity show yesterday
  # or
  git activity show --date yesterday
  
  git activity show "last monday"
  # or
  git activity show --date "last monday"

• Filter by any combination of date, log message regex pattern, repo regex pattern, branch regex pattern, commit message regex pattern, and commit SHA (first seven characters) regex pattern.^[1]

  # what progress did I make on assignments yesterday?
  git activity show yesterday --commit-message-pattern='feat\\('
  
  # what did I do on this project last week?
  git activity show "last week monday" --repo-pattern=my-cool-project

  NOTE

  All values except for <date> are treated as regular expressions

  % ls ~/Projects
  afronted
  org-1--front
  org-1--back
  org-2--front
  org-2--back
  
  # show activity recorded in all `org-1` repos
  % git activity show --repo-pattern=org-1
  
  # show activity recorded in `org-1--front`, `org-2--front`, and `afronted`
  % git activity show --repo-pattern=front
  
  # activity recorded in `org-1--front` and `org-2--front`
  % git activity show --repo-pattern='--front'
