Zero-touch time tracking using Git
giTrack is an utility that aims to make developer's life simpler by taking out the frequent management's requirement of reporting the time spent. It does so using Git's commit messages and times for creating time entries, which to my experience correlates quiet a lot. It won't produce 100% accurate reports, but it should be "good enough" to meet the requirement (and it will at least motivate the developer to write proper commit's messages).
giTracks has notion of providers which are the backends where the time entries are stored. Current providers:
Feel free to open an issue with a request for new providers! Anything that has an API should be possible to plug-in.
Easiest way to install this package is through PyPi:
$ pip install gitrackIt is also possible to use pex build which leaves out the hassle around pip (virtualenvs etc.).
You can download the build from latest release either manually or using
small installer script:
$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AuHau/gitrack/master/bin/install.sh | bashFor full overview of giTrack's capabilities please see full documentation.
