Visualising git commits

Just a reminder mainly for myself of the wonderful https://github.com/acaudwell/Gource programme to turn a git commit history into a wonderful animated spring graph visualisation.

For lengthy projects I'm using:

/gource -s 0.5 -a 1 -f -r 25 -o [output.ppm] [Git directory]

ffmpeg -y -r 25 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm  -i [output.ppm] -preset ultrafast -crf 1 -threads 0 -bf 0 [output.mp4]

(alternatively can be piped straight from gource to ffmpeg via stdout/in)
