There are multiple ways to commit and push git commits.
By looking at public history of a repo on github, is there any way to determine what percentage of git commits were made with the command line vs a git gui tool?
Reasoning
We are trying to determine how detrimental it would be to mandate that users commit with git commit --signoff
(Instead of contributor license agreements). No git gui tools I've found support --signoff
git directory that contains metadata about the repository. That's what Git uses to determine where to push your changes.
`git log` command is used to view the commit history and display the necessary information of the git repository. This command displays the latest git commits information in chronological order, and the last commit will be displayed first.
No, there isn't. Git commits do not capture or store this information.
A Git commit contains a tree ref, an author string, a committer string, a time stamp and a commit message. Nothing else.
You can inspect the contents of a commit (as in, these five pieces of data captured by a commit, not the tree it points to) using
$ git cat-file -p <commit_id>
