Ever want to hear the music of your commit history? Now you can! My latest musical weekend project is Rebass - music from your git history.

It's not quite there yet, IMHO. I'd love suggestions on how to make the _music_ better. It's better with non-linear histories.

code is here: https://github.com/adamf/rebass

Really like the concept. Could be interesting to map different branches or authors to instruments — might make the structure of the history more audible.

Different branches get different instruments (well, the branch gets a assigned a 'lane' based on modulo of the initial branch commit, and the lane has an instrument).

I like the concept of 'structure of the history'. That's kinda what I hope the music captures. But... it's not quite there.
