Issue with commit count? about mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin

[connerxyz]

Indeed! Ahh that makes sense. Thanks!

Hi @connerxyz , thanks for posting a bug report!

Can you try upgrading to the latest version first? pip install --upgrade mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin

If that doesn't solve it, some additional questions:

• which OS are you running? Which version of python (python -V)
• Does running git rev-list --count HEAD work for you (to see if you have a problem with git`)
• Do you specificy any plugin options other than the defaults?
• Which version of mkdocs are you using? run mkdocs -V
• Are you using any other plugins? Can you try disabling all others? Can you paste your mkdocs.yml file?

Tried it with 0.8 with similar result.

which OS are you running?
aws/codebuild/amazonlinux2-x86_64-standard:3.0

Which version of python (python -V)
3.8

Does running git rev-list --count HEAD work for you (to see if you have a problem with git`)
Doesn't seem to output anything.

Do you specificy any plugin options other than the defaults?

- git-revision-date-localized:  # https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/plugins/revision-date/
      type: timeago

Which version of mkdocs are you using? run mkdocs -V
mkdocs (1.1.2)

Are you using any other plugins? Can you try disabling all others? Can you paste your mkdocs.yml file?

Are you using AWS codebuild to build your docs? The problem with many build systems is that they do what's called a shallow git clone, meaning to speed up builds they do not retrieve the full git history. This plugin for every page looks at every line, and determines the date of the corresponding commit that touched that line, in order to determine when the page was last updated. See https://github.com/timvink/mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin#note-when-using-build-environments

This might also be the reason you are getting an error. I am not familiar with AWS codebuild, but you can try setting a very high value for git clone depth, or choose to do a full clone: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codebuild/latest/userguide/run-build-console.html
