Show HN: Frecenfile – Instantly rank Git files by edit activity (github.com/kantord)

frecenfile is a tiny CLI tool written in Rust that analyzes your Git commit history in order to identify "hot" or "trending" files using a frecency score that incorporates both the frequency and recency of edits.

It is fast enough to get an instant response in most repositories, and you will get a reasonably fast response in practically any repository.

It can be useful for getting a list of "recent"/important files when Git history is the only "usage" history you have available.



Gource, `git log --stat`, and `hg churn` also display code churn stats.

How could gource also display this metric?
