About:
GitWho extends the concept of git blame to entire file trees and directories. It analyzes the commit history of multiple files simultaneously to show who has been modifying specific areas of a project. This provides a quick overview of ownership and recent changes across a codebase.

Key Features:

Directory-level blame analysis
Multi-file change attribution
Terminal-based output
Recursive history traversal

Use Cases:

Identifying subject matter experts for different parts of a codebase
Reviewing recent changes in a specific directory before refactoring
Auditing contribution patterns across a project

Alternatives:

git blame – Native git command that only works on single files, not directories
git log --stat – Shows commit history with file changes but lacks per-line attribution
