Does this include all branches or only the master/default branch?

@olleharstedt It seems this refers to branch which you have checkouted.

@lordt Yes. I've added --all to include all branches. Thank you.

Adding a sort in between ensures that all the years appear only once in the final result.
git log --pretty='format:%cd' --date=format:'%Y' | sort | uniq -c
