Is there a way to generate metrics for a GitHub project?

I found two solutions:

• ohloh: you can put your project on the site and it will analyze your source code and provide some interesting statistics
• GitStats: a simple statistics generator for any Git repository on your computer

git log

options (some or one of)

--stat[=width[,name-width]]

Generate a diffstat. You can override the default output width for 80-column terminal by --stat=width. The width of the filename part can be controlled by giving another width to it separated by a comma.

--numstat

Similar to --stat, but shows number of added and deleted lines in decimal notation and pathname without abbreviation, to make it more machine friendly. For binary files, outputs two - instead of saying 0 0.

--shortstat

Output only the last line of the --stat format containing total number of modified files, as well as number of added and deleted lines.
