Git, find out which files have had the most commits
git
Solution
that's one of these things that is very easy, accidentally (?):
git rev-list --objects --all | awk '$2' | sort -k2 | uniq -cf1 | sort -rn | head
- give me all objects from all revisions in all branches
- ignore any results without a path
- sort them by path
- make them unique (ignoring the blob hash), prefix lines with duplication count
- sort descending on duplication count
- show topmost lines

You can take it from here.
E.g. if you wanted to see only file blobs:
git rev-list --objects --all | awk '$2' | sort -k2 | uniq -cf1 | sort -rn |
while read frequency sample file
do
[ "blob" == "$(git cat-file -t $sample)" ] && echo -e "$frequency\t$file";
done
output:

You wanted to see only specifc range of revisions
You can have a ball with the `rev-list` part:
git rev-list --after=2011-01-01 --until='two weeks ago' \
tag1...remote/hotfix ^master
Will use only revisions in the specified date range, that are in the symmetric set difference for `tag1` and `remote/hotfix` and are not in master
Problem
How can I search my git logs to see which files have had the most activity?
