Stay in the loop…

Follow the Tweets.

Every new command is wrapped in a tweet and posted to Twitter. Following the stream is a great way of staying abreast of the latest commands. For the more discerning, there are Twitter accounts for commands that get a minimum of 3 and 10 votes - that way only the great commands get tweeted.

List all authors of a particular git project

Gets the authors, sorts by number of commits (as a vague way of estimating how much of the project is their work, i.e. the higher in the list, the more they've done) and then outputs the results.

Know a better way?

If you can do better, submit your command here.

What others think

I believe this command actually only lists authors for the current branch. If you want the list for all repo authors:

git log --all --format='%aN' | sort -u

Also, for getting emails with that output:

git log --all --format='%aN <%cE>' | sort -u

Some joker put a whole bunch of control characters in their name on the git server and it messed up the formatting.
