For reviewing the referenced commits of a story or task, you have to include the issue ID as a hashtag in the commit message, I needed a better overview than just a flat list of commits.

I want to group the commits by file. In case of Rails apps I also want to group files with commits by the following categories: library, model, controller, javascript, view, tests, configuration and misc

Therefor I’ve implemented the Ruby gem commit_filter for Rails apps which renders filter results e.g. about commits referencing the GitHub issue #56 like this … http://Murd.ch/posts/filter-commits-and-group-them-by-category-and-file
