About GitQL
GitQL is an SQL-like query language and tool for querying data sources such as .git files. You can ask questions about commits, branches and other repository data using familiar SQL constructs.
It supports most SQL features, including grouping, ordering, aggregation and window functions, and it allows customization through user-defined types and functions. The project is written in Rust and also offers an SDK for building queries over other data sources. It suits developers who want ad hoc statistics about a repository without writing scripts.
