Neighborhood Git History

Pick a file and a distance N to list recent commits that touched any file within N code-reference hops of it.

Runs fully in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

1. Source snapshot

Pick the repo folder or a .zip. node_modules, .git, dist, build, vendor and non-source files are skipped.

2. Git history

Run this in the repo, then load or paste the output:

git log --name-status --date=iso --pretty=format:'@@%H|%an|%ad|%s' > history.txt

Output with --numstat or a plain git log --name-status also works. Renames are followed.

Release range and filters

Range start (older): date or commit hash Range end (newer): date or commit hash Ignore names defined in more than K files Exclude globs (comma separated)

The range applies to both the commit list and the release table. Hashes match by prefix.

References are matched by name (a file uses a class or function another file defines) and by import paths. There is no type checking, so treat results as approximate. The graph uses the snapshot only, so deleted files never count as neighbors.
