Git number of commits per author on all branches

Question

I'd like to get the number of commits per author on all branches. I see that

git shortlog -s -n

Prints a very nice list but it is not counting the commits that are not yet merged from other branches. If iterate this command over every branch then obviously the common commits get counted multiple times. Could you give me a script/command that would yield me the overall picture?

Solution

git shortlog -s -n --all --no-merges

Will give you statistics for all branches.

EDIT: Added --no-merges to exclude statistics from merge commits.

If anyone also need emails then you can use -e command like this: git shortlog -s -n -e --all

if you need a time period, specify --since="22 Aug 2017"

@mBardos --since="22 Aug 2017" --before="01 Sept 2017" to get period

@Kuncevic I meant period as a date from past till now ;)

Any way to include users who did not make commits? Show them as 0?

@sloven Anyone not part of that result made 0 commits :)

Can this be filtered specific to any branch?
