HTML with no external links. Similar to the HTML output format, but requires no active internet connection. As a consequence; the generated pages are bigger (as certain scripts have to be embedded into the generated output).

<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x myfile</strong></span>, filter out and exclude statistics from all files (or paths) with the string "myfile"
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x file:myfile</strong></span>, filter out and exclude statistics from all files (or paths) with the string "myfile"
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x author:John</strong></span>, filter out and exclude statistics from all authors containing the string "John"
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x email:@gmail.com</strong></span>, filter out and exclude statistics from all authors with a gmail account
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x revision:8755fb33</strong></span>, filter out and exclude statistics from all revisions containing the hash "8755fb33"
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x message:BUGFIX</strong></span>, filter out and exclude statistics from all revisions containing "BUGFIX" in the commit message.
</li></ul></div><p>The gitinspector command also lets you add multiple filtering rules by simply specifying the -x options several times or by separating each filtering rule with a comma;</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x author:John -x email:@gmail.com</strong></span>
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x author:John,email:@gmail.com</strong></span>
</li></ul></div><p>Sometimes, sub-string matching (as described above) is simply not enough. Therefore, gitinspector let’s you specify regular expressions as filtering rules. This makes filtering much more flexible:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x "author:\^(?!(John Smith))"</strong></span>, only show statistics from author "John Smith"
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x "author:\^(?!([A-C]))"</strong></span>, only show statistics from authors starting with the letters A/B/C
</li><li class="listitem">
<span class="strong"><strong>gitinspector -x "email:.com$"</strong></span>, filter out statistics from all email addresses ending with ".com"
</li></ul></div></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="_using_git_to_configure_gitinspector"></a><h2>USING GIT TO CONFIGURE GITINSPECTOR</h2><p>Options in gitinspector can be set using <span class="strong"><strong>git config</strong></span>. Consequently, it is possible to configure gitinspector behavior globally (in all git repositories) or locally (in a specific git repository). It also means that settings will be permanently stored. All the long options that can be given to gitinspector can also be configured via git config (and take the same arguments).</p><p>To configure how gitinspector should behave in all git repositories, execute the following git command:</p><p><span class="strong"><strong>git config --global inspector.option setting</strong></span></p><p>To configure how gitinspector should behave in a specific git repository, execute the following git command (with the current directory standing inside the repository in question):</p><p><span class="strong"><strong>git config inspector.option setting</strong></span></p></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="_author"></a><h2>AUTHOR</h2><p>Originally written by Adam Waldenberg.</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="_reporting_bugs"></a><h2>REPORTING BUGS</h2><p>Report gitinspector bugs to <a class="ulink" href="mailto:gitinspector@ejwa.se" target="_top">gitinspector@ejwa.se</a></p><p>The gitinspector project page: <a class="ulink" href="https://github.com/ejwa/gitinspector" target="_top">https://github.com/ejwa/gitinspector</a></p><p>If you encounter problems, be sure to read the FAQ first: <a class="ulink" href="https://github.com/ejwa/gitinspector/wiki/FAQ" target="_top">https://github.com/ejwa/gitinspector/wiki/FAQ</a></p><p>There is also an issue tracker at: <a class="ulink" href="https://github.com/ejwa/gitinspector/issues" target="_top">https://github.com/ejwa/gitinspector/issues</a></p></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="_copyright"></a><h2>COPYRIGHT</h2><p>Copyright © 2012-2015 Ejwa Software.
