Ghost

Welcome

This is Ghost, an electron app for code quality analysis through git.

Just enter a branchname or branchtype you want to analyse and select your .git-repository.
Ghost will show all file occurrence within these branches and provide statistics for you.

If you want to search for a specific file type only, type the file extension(s) in the second textbox like this: js,jsx,json and so on.

About the project

As mentioned above Ghost is an analysing tool for git branches. The main purpose is to identify files which are relatively often part of bugfixes. This suggests that those files should be refactored.

How to install

When you first download and install Ghost a warning message will appear, telling you that the application is from an unidentified dev and therefore can't be opened.

Until we get an open source license a work around is needed to install Ghost:
Go to your settings menu and select 'security & privacy'. In the 'General' Tab a note at the bottom will tell you, that the installation has been blocked. Tap the button 'Open Anyway' to allow the installation.
