As simple as:
git shortlog -s -n

7This will count number of commits, not lines of code – a.ch. Nov 18 '20 at 21:37

2`-s -n` can be combined together into `-sn` – Mahmoud K. Nov 24 '20 at 17:15

29@a.ch. to count the number of lines of code instead, you can use: `git ls-files | while read f; do git blame -w -M -C -C --line-porcelain "$f" | grep -I '^author '; done | sort -f | uniq -ic | sort -n --reverse` – hartmut Dec 03 '20 at 12:08

3@hartmut you should post a distinct answer – Vitaly Isaev Mar 05 '21 at 13:04

@hartmut this is great, but it doesn't count the lines that are deleted or lines modified by other people – Ching Chang Jul 23 '21 at 18:09
-
@hartmut The command might to have two issues: (1) git submodules (2) spaces in filenames – Martin Thoma Sep 07 '21 at 06:50

@MartinThoma I don't think this has an issue with spaces in filenames. – Will Eccles Sep 28 '21 at 20:52

You could try git-stats or use git command to explore from the logs

1You can also try github app: PR Count https://github.com/marketplace/pr-count, if you don't like command line tool. – Ben Mar 28 '20 at 19:43

You should have a look to repoXplorer, an open source project I develop. It is able to compute stats for a project (a group of git repositories) as well as for a contributor and a group of contributors. It provides a REST interface and a web UI. The web UI provides various information like, for a given contributor:
- commits, lines changed and projects count
- date histogram of commits
- top projects by commits
- top projects by lines changed
But best is to have a look to the demo instance here.
Here is a screenshot of the stats page of a contributor (stats are computed accross all repositories indexed by repoxplorer, but can be filtered for a specific project):

Sure, it can be used with any git repositories. It is not tied to GitHub or other hosting platforms. – Fbo Sep 27 '19 at 21:41

are there any instructions for that? I saw only github specific ones at least under "quickstart" – Tim Sep 28 '19 at 11:10

1If you use the docker way, then follow the first step of the section https://github.com/morucci/repoxplorer#quickstart---use-the-repoxplorer-docker-container-to-index-a-github-organization in order to start repoXplorer. Then create a "projects.yaml" inside docker-data/conf/ by following https://github.com/morucci/repoxplorer#define-projects-to-index. The github helper is just a tool to read a github organisation from the github API to create a "projects.yaml". In your case you have to create the file manually. – Fbo Sep 29 '19 at 20:51

I'd suggest Gitential. It measures:
- coding volume
- coding hours
- productivity
- efficiency
and provides an analytical interface to visualize them on multiple levels:
- projects
- teams
- repos
- developers
It also deduplicates author identities and filter suspicious commits to give a better picture.

PR Count is a github app built for showing contribution stats.
You can install for free. No need to write your own scripts or use command line tools.

Hi! Does the "PR Count" app work for private repos too? I installed it but not sure how to see stats. – xke Sep 09 '20 at 23:42
-
Yes, it does work for private repos. Try uninstall and install the app again. It should redirect you to prcount.com where you can see all the stats! @xke – Ben Dec 13 '20 at 23:18

Looks like someone may have compromised this app, it redirects to a casino domain on install. – Simon Feb 18 '22 at 17:07
