Having fun with gource

I just packaged the gource package for Mandriva Cooker, so therefore it will be available in Mandriva 2010.1 – which will be released in just few weeks.

While doing so, I was playing a bit with it, and it is an impressive piece of software. I often receive comments asking about “who is really working on Mandriva-specific software”. So, just to illustrate it in details, here goes a detailed explanation of who had commited something into drakx-net (Mandriva network stack) over the past year and half:

The command to generate this video was (inside drakx-net source directory, checked out with git):

gource -640x360 -s 0.1 --stop-at-end --disable-progress --output-ppm-stream - | \
ffmpeg -y -b 3000K -r 60 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm -i - drakx-net.mp4<div class="social4i" style="height:82px;"><div class="social4in" style="height:82px;float: left;"><div class="socialicons s4twitter" style="float:left;margin-right: 10px;background:url(&quot;http://goo.gl/zjqd1&quot;) no-repeat;"><a href="http://twitter.com/share" data-url="http://dodonov.net/blog/2010/06/02/having-fun-with-gource/" data-counturl="http://dodonov.net/blog/2010/06/02/having-fun-with-gource/" data-text="Having fun with gource" class="twitter-share-button" data-count="vertical" data-via="eugeni_dodonov"></a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></div><div class="socialicons s4plusone" style="float:left;margin-right: 10px;"><script type="text/javascript" src="http://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js"></script><g:plusone size="tall" href="http://dodonov.net/blog/2010/06/02/having-fun-with-gource/" count="true"></g:plusone></div><div class="socialicons s4fbshare" style="position: relative;height: 61px;width:61px;background:url(&quot;http://goo.gl/qt6Vu&quot;) no-repeat;float:left;margin-right: 10px;"><div class="s4ifbshare" style="position: absolute; bottom: 0pt;"><a name="fb_share" type="box_count" share_url="http%3A%2F%2Fdodonov.net%2Fblog%2F2010%2F06%2F02%2Fhaving-fun-with-gource%2F" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php"></a><script src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share" type="text/javascript"></script></div></div></div><div style="clear:both"></div></div>
