Git Changes is a git alias or a standalone script, which allows you to quickly see how many insertions, deletions and changes the repository has up until the current HEAD.

To save it as an alias, use this command:

git config --global alias.changes '!git diff --shortstat $(git log --max-parents=0 HEAD | grep -o -m 1 "[0-9a-f]\{40\}") HEAD'

Example usage:

> git changes < 26 files changed, 1402 insertions(+), 170 deletions(-)
