Here is a quick-tip to see how many lines a Git project contains.

Even if lines of code is not an accurate representation of the complexity of a project, it can still be an interesting number to get a feeling for the size of a software project. To ignore files not tracked by Git (like node_modules) you can use the following command to see how many lines a git project has:

git ls-files | xargs cloc

Just make sure you have cloc installed.
