TODO Tracks is a tool to let users get a handle on the various TODOs they or their teammate have added over time. This allows people to track progress by examining the TODOs remaining.
The tool examines all the branches in a git repo (local and remote), finds the TODOs in the different revisions, and presents them to the user.
Use cases:
- List the TODOs in a branch.
- Examine when a TODO was added, removed, and who added it.
- Show which branches a TODO is in.
This is not an official Google product.
Building requires the Go tools and GNU Make. Running the built binary requires the git command line tool.
First checkout the code from the git repo:
git clone [email protected]:google/todo-tracks.git
Build the binary:
make
And then launch it:
bin/todos
The tracker requires that it be started in a directory that contains at least one git repo, and it shows the TODOs from every git repo under that directory.
The UI for the tracker is a webserver which defaults to listening on port 8080. To use a different port, pass it as an argument to the "--port" flag:
bin/todos --port=12345
For more details about the supported command line flags, pass in the "--help" flag.
bin/todos --help
