He recommends git blame to identify which files should be prioritized when improving the codebase, but git log and a bit of shell-fu can make remove the need for manual browsing. For example, obtaining the list of the 10 most modified files is as easy as: git log --name-only --pretty=format: | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -n 10 This is only a simple example but something non much different could be used to get a better indication of actual activity, limit the search to specific timeframes or users, etc...
