BH> git shortlog -e --summary BH> should give you a list of all of the contributors on the project. It does. But that's not useful when you're trying to find out who wrote the last verstion of a specific function or even a single line. `git blame' is the best way I know but I need to track content across files, so it gets pretty tough even with that tool's support for tracking content. I wrote some scripts to parse the "porcelain" output of `git blame' and the -w (ignore whitespace) flag is vital, but it's a lot of tedious work nevertheless.
