Support for other social coding sites

It would be interesting to be able to point this tool at other sites in addition to GitHub. For example, BitBucket and GitLab both have APIs that cover most (if not all) of the functionality that GitHub's API does. Gitbucket aims to be API compatible with GitHub, so contributors may Just Work™ when pointed at a gitbucket deployment.

This feature could be added with a CLI option, e.g.

$ contributors --host gitlab example/project
$ contributors --host https://example.com/api/v1 --handler github example/project

The options would default to GitHub to match current behavior. The names of options / feature design are open for discussion. Would contributions adding this functionality be welcome?

I use GitLab a lot so this would be a very useful feature. 😃
