A nice feature would be some analysis of the available git information

[jackson-dean]

None of these are my ideas, they all come directly from the book Software Design X Rays: Fix Technical Debt with Behavioral Code Analysis by Adam Tornhill :)

But it would be super cool to have analysis of what are the “hot” files, or where do we have lots of different people touching the same files which can be broken down to more granular modules, where do we have related changes always happening in tandem indicating tight coupling, among other things.

Thanks, @jackson-dean. Great idea. We'll add it to our list for exploration.

I could imagine us doing something like git effort from git-extras:

❯ git effort --above 10

👍 there is a cli tool that does a lot of this analysis. Note that I have not vetted it for how well it works or anything else https://github.com/adamtornhill/code-maat but it was created to accompany the exercises in the aforementioned book. I imagine it has some nice tricks that could be used for inspiration though.
