I've got a database of all our commits with info like: timestamp,
author, number of rows added/deleted, number of files modified, which
files modified, rows modified in each file. Basically it's data quickly
parsed from a "git log --stat" of HEAD (because it was a whole lot
easier to parse the git stuff). It's got about 27,500 commits in it -
only the stuff that happened on HEAD, nothing for backbranches.

So, if you can be a bit more specific in what you want :) Attached is
for example "commits per month" and "lines per month".
