Inactive Project: GitHub used to generate their SVGs client-side in JS, which let me reverse-engineer the scoring algorithm. Unfortunately, they now generate the SVG on the backend, so this debugging tool is not really very helpful anymore.

Debug tool for tracing how GitHub contribution charts are created.

To set up the system, run ./setup.sh.

To pull pages for other users, run ./setup.sh.

You can modify the javascript files to help diagnose how things are happening

git clone git://github.com/akerl/debughub
