A tactile repository time-lapse. Every file becomes a horizontal band of cloth; every commit becomes a raised knot pressed into it. Scrub the shuttle back and forth and watch the fabric of a project get woven, one commit at a time.
Keyboard: space weave / pause · ← → step a commit · Home / End jump to either selvedge.
Tap a knot on the cloth, or move the shuttle, to inspect a commit.

Exports exactly what is on the cloth right now — the same filters, the same shuttle position. Files are generated in your tab and saved straight to your device.
Run this in any repository and paste the output below:
git log --pretty=format:"%h|%an|%ad|%s" --date=short --numstat --reverse
Also accepted: --name-status instead of --numstat, the plain
commit / Author: / Date: format, and logs in either chronological direction. Author emails are
discarded during parsing and never displayed.
Every knot in the current filter, in order. Selecting one moves the shuttle.
