In my resume I have a list of open source projects I’ve contributed to. In order to make it easy for people reading my resume I’d like to include a one-liner which will help them verify that I’ve actually done what I’m claiming. This works well for darcs, one of the lines in my resume looks like this:
darcs changes --repo=http://darcs.net/ --match="author Josef"
This line lists all my patches in the darcs repository at darcs.net.
But git seems rather remote impaired in that there’s a lot of things it cannot do remotely, specifically doing a log. There might be other ways besides using log to solve this and I’d really like to hear about them. But keep in mind that it really needs to be lightweight because I cannot ask very much of the people reading my resume.
Your best bet is when your git projects are hosted in, say, GitHub, and you can just point to the contributors list for the project(s) – https://github.com/user/project/contributors
Or if your project has some web interface like gitweb or cgit, etc. you can do soemthing with that. But otherwise, there is no “lighweight” way.
