$brew install git-standup
AI Analysis
git-standup is a small shell wrapper around git log that turns recent commit history into standup-style summaries for the current repository or a directory tree of repositories. It is aimed at answering what you or a teammate changed since the last working day without hand-building log queries each time.
What It Enables
- Summarize your own or another author's recent commits across the current repo or multiple repos under a workspace directory.
- Filter standup output by date range, workweek, branch, GPG status, or diffstat when you need daily updates or lightweight activity audits.
- Generate a plain-text standup report file and optionally fetch remotes first before collecting commit summaries.
Agent Fit
- Non-interactive flags and simple shell usage make it easy to call from cron jobs, CI, or local status scripts.
- Output is plain text only, so agents that need structured summaries must parse human-oriented
git logformatting or callgit logdirectly. - Best fit is quick status reporting across many local repos; it is less compelling as a general Git automation surface because it mostly packages existing
git logfilters.
Caveats
- Reports only reflect local Git history unless you opt into
-ffetches first. - The tool is intentionally narrow: it summarizes commits, but it does not add broader inspect-or-change workflows beyond optional fetches and report-file output.
