git-who is a command-line tool that answers 'who wrote this code?' at the level of file trees and subsystems rather than individual lines, like git blame for directories. It summarizes authorship contributions across a Git repository with table, tree, and list views.

Use cases

• find out who is responsible for a subsystem or directory in a codebase
• identify maintainers for a component before filing an issue or sending a patch
• analyze contributor activity across an entire git repository
• determine who last edited parts of a file tree
• audit code ownership when onboarding to a new codebase
• find who will maintain a project area going forward

When to choose

• you need authorship info for directories or whole components, not single lines
• you want a fast terminal-based summary of git contributor statistics
• you prefer a git-style CLI that works as 'git who'

When to avoid

• you need line-by-line blame for a specific file (use git blame)
• you need a GUI or web-based code analytics dashboard
• you are not working with a git repository
