This is fantastic, sorry. For newb question but how do you do inject into guy history like this?

luckily git takes both GIT_AUTHOR_DATE and GIT_COMMITTER_DATE as environment variables. This python script generates a bash script that sets a date and commit one line changes for every pixel that needs some gitfiti.

Doesn't your other contributions mess with the pattern ?

I'd expect the script to account for other past contributions. Shouldn't be too hard?!

edit: Well, except of course that it'd be impossible to change past pixels to have less colour. So you're right.
