What kind of file should the config file be? Can git-stats-importer use git-stats's config file?

[cmal]

Hi, @IonicaBizau . I've been using git-stats these days, and I wonder what kind of file should a git-stats config file be? Should the file .git-stats-config.js and the emails key be a json file with the format of

{
emails: [
"[email protected]"
]
}

Are there a document about that?

Can git-stats-importer use the config file of git-stats?

I've read this code of git-stats-importer and found that if a -e option does not supplied the process will terminated.

I thought If one has already sepecify the email field in the config file, it should not terminate because this code is to read the config file.

Well, the git-stats-config.js doesn't store the emails. The importer accepts the emails passed via the cli argument.

Is there a specific reason for using a config file?

I've been using $ git-stats-importer -e "email1, email2, email3, ..." every time.
Is there a better way to do that? For example, just use $ git-stats-importer.

Well, you can create a bash function for it... But I guess we need a stronger reason to add the emails in `git-stats` config. :-)

Ok. I will create a bash func for this...

Is there any way to just do all the authors in the repo?
