new-contributors
Generate a list of recent (possible) new contributors to a GitHub project
(Extracted from http://github.com/rvagg/iojs-tools)
Usage: `new-contributors [--days|-d ] [org/repo]
The default number of days of history to inspect is 7, this can be changed with the --days (or -d) argument.
The default organisation and repository pair is node/nodejs but this can be overridden by supplying the pair as an argument, e.g: new-contributors Level/level.
new-contributors will load the git history of the repository in the current working directory, collecting email addresses of contributors up to <days> ago. It will also attempt to load a .mailmap file as it existed <days> ago, if it exists. Pull requests created since <days> ago are then analysed and the git email addresses of each of the contributors are compared to the existing contributors as per the git log and and .mailmap entries. Any addresses that are new indicate a possible new contributor. The output consists of a list of pull requests and the names and addresses of the authors.
Example
$ new-contributors --days 4
Loaded 4 days old /Users/rvagg/git/nodejs/node/.mailmap with 159 entries...
Found 884 email addresses in git log up to 4 days ago for /Users/rvagg/git/nodejs/node...
Checking 21 pull requests for nodejs/node...
