A tool that visualizes a git repository as an interactive SVG treemap, where file sizes reflect diff activity (lines added/removed). It parses git history into a SQLite database and serves a Flask web app for filtering by author, commit, filename, and date range.

Use cases

• visualize which files changed the most in a git repository
• generate a treemap heatmap of git diff activity
• analyze which authors or commits touched which files
• explore codebase hotspots by file extension or date range
• create an SVG image of a repository's change history

When to choose

• you want a visual, interactive treemap of git change activity
• you need to identify hotspots or most-modified files in a large repo
• you want to filter history by author, email, filename, or date range

When to avoid

• you need line-by-line code diffs rather than aggregate activity
• you want commit graphs or branch topology visualization (use gitk or Gource instead)
• you need a supported license for commercial redistribution (none is provided)
