time_filling

Idea: a week is 7 days, and a group of 7 hexagons just happens to form a bigger hexagon. What if we were to represent the rectangular commit graph, as hexagons ?

The project is called time_filling as a reference to space filling curves such as the Hilbert curve.

The actual code which is written in Rust, and the actual build instructions are in mk3/. The rest is old attempts that weren't documented well enough, so I just gave up

The conclusion is that hexagons are pretty, but it's less readable than the normal square grid.

Here's the old README for the C++ code:

Requirements

For the library:

• C++17
• cmake 1.11 or something

For display.py:

• python with matplotlib and the GTK3Cairo backend (or whichever you get to work)

Building

Set g++-8 or any C++17 compiler as your CXX environmnet variable, then run cmake in your $BUILDROOT

To view the path, you can currently use $BUILDROOT/Cli/tfill | python $REPO/display.py
