[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/c526f164a378a3824ce0259885dc72e46cc2a107c4e97b7c18633526fc4638ab/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f6461762d6d38352f627573666163746f722e706e673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/dav-m85/busfactor)

*busfactor* generates a coverage report indicating how much each contributor worked on each file of a git repo. It helps pinpoint part of the code that are poorly maintained/known by the teams working on it.

[![screenshot](https://github.com/dav-m85/busfactor/raw/master/doc/screenshot.png)](https://github.com/dav-m85/busfactor/raw/master/doc/screenshot.png)

If someone gets hit by a bus, some files may become more difficult to maintain further.

It was inspired by a GoogleIO talk given by Brian Fitzpatrick, Ben Collins-Sussman, [The Myth of the Genius Programmer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SARbwvhupQ).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

[](#with-composer)

```

```

Make sure your global composer folder is in your PATH.

### By cloning the repo

[](#by-cloning-the-repo)

[](#as-a-dependency-in-another-composer-project)

    }
}
```

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Given you have a repository `my/git/repository`, you can generate a report with following command (`output/parent/folder` has to be writeable):

```
busfactor generate my/git/repository output/parent/folder
```

Then open `output/parent/folder/index.html` with your browser.

If you don't specify an output folder, the report will automatically be generated to `out/` folder relative to [busfactor](busfactor) file.

If you intend to serve generated files, specify an asset-url options like this:

```
busfactor generate my/git/repository output/parent/folder --asset-url http://example.com/root/path

```
