GitStats

Git contribution statistics for IntelliJ Platform IDEs.

Git activity statistics for JetBrains IDEs.

GitStats turns the Git history of your current project into a clear author-level activity report inside the IDE. Review contribution trends, compare code changes across teammates, and share the visible results without leaving your development workflow.

• Author-level summaries: compare commits, added lines, deleted lines, and modified files.
• Flexible date ranges: inspect this week, the last 7 days, this month, or a custom range.
• Author filtering: narrow large repositories down to the contributors you want to review.
• Two calculation modes: use Fast Summary for quick line-based ranking, or Detailed mode when commit counts matter.
• Noise control: exclude generated folders, vendor code, build outputs, or any project-relative paths.
• Shareable results: copy selected rows, copy the full table, or export the visible statistics as CSV.

Getting Started

1. Open a project backed by a Git repository in any supported JetBrains IDE.
2. Open the Git Stats tool window.
3. Choose a date range and optionally filter by author.
4. Click Refresh to calculate the report.
5. Use the settings action to switch modes or exclude noisy paths such as generated files and build outputs.

Privacy-friendly by design: GitStats uses the Git executable configured in your IDE and reads only local repository history. No source code, commit data, or statistics are sent to external services.

Why GitStats?

• Review Git contribution activity directly in the IDE.
• Filter statistics by start date and end date.
• Compare authors by commits, added lines, deleted lines, and modified files.
• Use Fast Summary mode for a quick ranking view, or Detailed mode when commit count is needed.
• Exclude noisy paths such as generated files, build outputs, or vendor directories.

Installation

• Marketplace:

  Install from JetBrains Marketplace, or open Settings/Preferences > Plugins > Marketplace, search for GitStats, then install the plugin.

• Manual installation:

  Download the latest release, then install it with Settings/Preferences > Plugins > Install plugin from disk...

Usage

1. Open a Git-backed project in an IntelliJ Platform IDE.
2. Open the Git Stats tool window.
3. Pick the start and end dates for the reporting range.
4. Click Refresh to calculate the table.
5. Use the settings action to switch between Fast Summary and Detailed, or set excluded paths.
