* The previous commands were Lower CamelCase style and had no equivalent short options. If you wanted to see the branch tree via non-interactive mode, you always needed to supply "branchTree" as the passing argument to the git-quick-stats script. This commit changes the argument style to be more akin to the POSIX and GNU styles of arguments commonly seen in many other applications. As of this commit, there is no compatibility with legacy commands, so those who have been using the old commands will unfortunately need to get familiar with the new ones. All documentation and tests have been updated accordingly to reflect the new changes. * The main interactive loop contained a non-variable constant that was only getting parsed correctly due to legacy fallback behavior. This commit fixes the main loop and cleans up the formatting a little bit. * Added -r to more areas where read reads in a variable to help prevent it from mangling backslashes. * Changed everything to use bash's built-in [[ notation and did some minor formatting changes to reduce the LOC. * Removed some unnecessary echo statements and did some other minor cleanup.

GIT quick statistics 
git quick-statsis a simple and efficient way to access various statistics in git repository.
Any git repository contains tons of information about commits, contributors, and files. Extracting this information is not always trivial, mostly because of a gadzillion options to a gadzillion git commands – I don’t think there is a single person alive who knows them all. Probably not even Linus Torvalds himself :).

Git log since / until
You can set variable _GIT_SINCE, _GIT_UNTIL and limit the git log
export _GIT_SINCE="2017-20-01"

then run git quick-stats (affect all stats, except "My daily status" and "Git changelogs" )
Git log limit
You can set variable _GIT_LIMIT for limited output (it will affect: "Git changelogs" and "Branch tree view" )
export _GIT_LIMIT=20
Git pathspec
You can exclude directory from the stats by using pathspec
export _GIT_PATHSPEC=':!directory'

FAQ
Q: I get some errors after run git-quick-stats in cygwin like /usr/local/bin/git-quick-stats: line 2: $'\r': command not found
A: You can run dos2unix app in cygwin /bin/dos2unix.exe /usr/local/bin/git-quick-stats. This will convert it to Unix format and you then should be able to run it.

Code reviews
All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review.
We use Github pull requests for this purpose.
Some tips for good pull requests:
- Use our code
When in doubt, try to stay true to the existing code of the project. - Write a descriptive commit message. What problem are you solving and what are the consequences? Where and what did you test? Some good tips: here and here.
- If your PR consists of multiple commits which are successive improvements /
fixes to your first commit, consider squashing them into a single commit
(
git rebase -i) such that your PR is a single commit on top of the current HEAD. This make reviewing the code so much easier, and our history more readable.
