gitfiti _noun_ : Carefully crafted graffiti in a github commit history calendar.
An example of gitfiti in the wild:

`gitfiti.py` is a tool I wrote to decorate your github account's commit history calendar by (blatantly) abusing git's ability to accept commits _in the past_.
How? `gitfiti.py` generates a bash script: `gitfiti.sh` that makes commits with the GIT_AUTHOR_DATE and GIT_COMMITTER_DATE environment variables set for each targeted pixel.
Since this is likely to clobber repo's history, I highly recommend that you create a _new_ github repo when using gitfiti. Also, the generated bash script assumes you are using public-key authentication with git.
### Pixel Art:
![alt text](https://raw.github.com/gelstudios/gitfiti/master/pixels-large.png "pixel art")
Included "art" from left to right: kitty, oneup, oneup2, hackerschool, octocat, octocat2
### Usage:
1. Create a new github repo to store your handiwork.
2. Run `gitfiti.py` and follow the prompts for username, art selection, offset, and repo name.
3. Run the generated `gitfiti.sh` from your home directory (or any non-git tracked dir) and watch it go to work.
4. Wait... Seriously, you'll probably need to wait a day or two for the gitfiti to show in your commit graph.
### User Templates
The file format for personal templates is the following:
1. Each template starts off with a ":" and then a name (eg. ":foo")
2. Each line after that is part of a json-recognizable array.
3. The array contain values 0-4, 0 being blank and 4 being dark green.
4. To add multiple templates, just add another name tag as described in 1.
For example:
```
:center-blank
[[1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
[1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
[1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
[1,1,1,0,1,1,1],
[1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
[1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
[1,1,1,1,1,1,1]]
```
This would output a 7 x 7 light green square with a single blank center square.
Once you have a file with templates, enter its name when prompted and the templates will be added to the list of options.
### Removal:
Fortunately if you regret your gitfiti in the morning, removing it is fairly easy: delete the repo you created for your gitfiti (and wait).
