code-clock

Clock in and clock out with code-clock. Helps to keep a log of how much time you spend working with a file in your project.

Using git timestamps helps, but you're not working the entire time between timestamps. code-clock comes in handy when you want to keep track of the time you're actually working.

It's also really useful when you want to see what you did during a specific time of work. Just look at the commit history on the .csv file that code-clock makes for you and you'll see everything that has changed with the lines that were added to the .csv.

Install:

npm install code-clock -g

Use:

clock --help
