Make a color bar showing the age of lines in a file from git blame output.
--[[
Little script that expects to be fed the output of "git blame -t -p"
and will generate SVG image 50 px high with horizontal lines coloured
by the age of a line of code. See the accompanying shells script for
an example invocation.
The SVG will be the number of code lines wide (plus a border).
The brightness of a vertical line shows the age, white being just now,
black, the time the file was first created.
A Gamma exponent is used to make aging non-linear.
