Take photo every time you commit then make a film

Demo

Prerequisites

• git
• imagesnap
• ffmpeg

Setup

Following steps assume that you have no local post-commit hooks. If you have - use your brain.

• brew install imagesnap
• git clone
• switch to cloned directory
• cp -r .git-templates ~/.git-templates && cp -r .git-post-commit-scripts ~/.git-post-commit-scripts
• tell git where to find templates git config --global init.templatedir '~/.git-templates'
• update your existing repos with git init
  • if .git/post-commit already exists in project git init will not update it
  • you will need to rm the file and rerun or merge it manually.
• commits will now put a photo in ~/.gitshots directory and append activity to log.txt

Making a film

• requires ffmpeg
• run bin/make-film will output film_${timestamp}.mp4 to ~/.gitshots
