i want to see the number of removed/added line, grouped by author for a given branch in git history. there is git shortlog -s which shows me the number of commits per author. is there anything similar to get an overall diffstat?

It's an old post but if someone is still looking for it:

install git extras

brew install git-extras

then

git summary --line
