Hey Git users! I built Git Story to give developers and creators an easy way to animate the history of their Git repos. I couldn't find any tools that generate a good looking version of Git's commit history automatically, so I created git-story to do this. The goal is to allow users to generate video animations of their Git commit history with a single command. Full article at https://initialcommit.com/blog/g... Use cases: -Visualizing Git projects -Sharing desired parts of your workflow with your team -Creating animated Git videos for blog posts or YouTube -Helping newer developers learn Git Enjoy and hit me up at jacob@initialcommit.io with any questions or comments! We also gladly accept pull requests and other contributions on our GitHub page https://github.com/initialcommit....
