This is a mashup of git, spark , and Perl. You only need to bother with --scale option if you want to compare the output from 2 different git-spark commands. To better understand this option please read this short blog post . INSTALLATION First, download spark and put it somewhere in your $PATH. (TODO: Include spark in this distro.) Next, install git-spark with cpanm. cpanm is the standard tool the Perl community uses to download and install Perl libraries from the CPAN . The following should get you up and running quickly: curl -L http://cpanmin.us | perl - --sudo App::cpanminus cpanm App::Git::Spark AUTHOR Eric Johnson COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2013 by Eric Johnson.
