Git standup, how did I ever live without you?

Ben Halpern on March 21, 2017

I am sure you've been preparing for a meeting where a team typically discusses what they did yesterday and what they are planning to do today. Thes...

Now, if only it grabbed them across ALL my projects (or my org Git repos) and sent an email to everyone interested + dashboard that would be the best stand up tool!

How about this one github.com/psss/did/ ? It can grab "wth did I do last week??" data from other sources, not just git repos, see github.com/psss/did/tree/master/di... for the current set of plugins. It does not solve the "dashboard" part but it definitely produces something that can easily be copypasted into any "status report" e-mail :)

I could help you on the "across ALL my projects" part. Wrote something similar to remember what I did (and where).

This is a good idea - I may write a little node script to use this tool and do just this! :)

Gleb Bahmutov • Mar 22 '17

Hit me up then, it would be great OSS or side project,

That didn't work for me, so instead I did the following to list all my git repos in ~/src

find . -depth -5 -type d -name ".git" | sed -e "s/\(\.\/\)\(.*\)\(\.git\)/~\/src\/\2/g" | tr '\n' ','

I could probably add something like this to omgit

That sounds like Jira!

... ducks and covers ...

Combine it with gist.github.com/timabell/1391205#f... perhaps

You can do something similar with TFS:

```tf history "$/" /recursive /user:YOURUSERNAME /noprompt | head -n NUMBEROFCHECKINS



and as a Powershell function:



```function tfhist {tf history "$/" /recursive /user:YOURUSERNAME /noprompt | head -n NUMBEROFCHECKINS}
set-alias standup tfhist

I had such high hopes. Installed it only found 1 commit in the last 20 days.

Meghan (she/her) • Apr 14 '19

A lack of activity doesn’t always mean it’s broken or out of date. It could just mean they finished.

Ben Halpern • Apr 14 '19

Yeah, especially for a personal utility that interacts with git. Not exactly Kubernetes-level stakes.

Andrés Felipe Piñeros • Nov 4 '17

Damn! I wish I only worked with one repository. Who isn't lazy enough to publish a bash script that starts at the parent folder, iterates all the subfolders (git projects), calls the standup command inside each and writes the results of all in a single file?

It took 3.5 years but I'm finally on board the git standup hype train. I worked on like 8 tickets yesterday and remembered there was a way to get a summary of all my commits to just look at that instead of tracking it down in Jira haha
