activity_history adds the latest commit, commit count, age in days and author to each tracked entry in the timeline view. Turn it on when you read lla --timeline in a Git repository and want to see who last touched a file and how often it changes.

A timeline listing in which each tracked file shows its latest commit, commit count, age in days and author. — `lla --timeline lla/src/plugin` with only `activity_history` enabled.

Turn it on

# ~/.config/lla/config.toml
enabled_plugins = ["activity_history"]

Or run this once. It saves the same setting, so the plugin stays on until you run lla --disable-plugin activity_history.

lla --enable-plugin activity_history

Output appears only in the timeline view (formats = ["timeline"]). Tracked files and directories get data. Untracked files and .git/ stay bare.

Field	Type	Holds
`activity_commits`	integer	Commits that touched the path
`activity_last_commit`	timestamp	Time of the latest commit
`activity_author`	string	Author of the latest commit
`activity_commit`	string	Full hash of the latest commit
`activity_days_since`	integer	Days since the latest commit

The fields exist only when the listing uses the timeline format, so add --timeline to read them as JSON. Plain lla --json leaves plugin empty, and field: columns in long and table views print -.

lla --timeline --json | jq '.[] | select(.name=="mod.rs") | .plugin'

Actions

Action	Arguments	What it does
`inspect`	`<path>`	Prints the commit data for one file or directory.

lla plugin run activity_history inspect -- ./src/main.rs

inspect isn't interactive, so it works in scripts and pipes. An untracked path returns tracked: false with empty values. Running the action also enables the plugin and saves that setting.

Example

lla --timeline lla/src/plugin

process = true, because it runs git rev-parse and git log --follow for every listed entry. filesystem = ["metadata:selection"] covers the listed paths.
