`);
console.log(JSON.stringify(commitRange, null, 2));

getCommitHistory

  getCommitHistory(filePath: string, skip?: number, count?: number) : ICommit[]

Example:

import { getCommitHistory } from '@git-temporal/gitLogScraper';

const commitHistory = getCommitHistory(path);
console.warn(`parsed ${commitHistory.length} commits`);
console.log(JSON.stringify(commitHistory, null, 2));
