Git Browsing the history List all contributions grouped by author name
Example
git shortlog summarizes git log and groups by author
If no parameters are given, a list of all commits made per committer will be shown in chronological order.
$ git shortlog
Committer 1 (<number_of_commits>):
Commit Message 1
Commit Message 2
...
Committer 2 (<number_of_commits>):
Commit Message 1
Commit Message 2
...
To simply see the number of commits and suppress the commit description, pass in the summary option:
-s
--summary
$ git shortlog -s
<number_of_commits> Committer 1
<number_of_commits> Committer 2
To sort the output by number of commits instead of alphabetically by committer name, pass in the numbered option:
-n
--numbered
To add the email of a committer, add the email option:
-e
--email
A custom format option can also be provided if you want to display information other than the commit subject:
--format
This can be any string accepted by the --format option of git log.
See Colorizing Logs above for more information on this.
