Mkdocs: [Feature request] Add automatic history to markdown based on git commits

[oliviernguyenquoc]

It would be nice to track the history of each markdown/doc page (who have done a modification, when and what kind of update).

It could be based on commits (author, commit date and commit message)

Exemple:

| Author | When | Message|
| ------------- |:-------------:| -----:|
| woman_1 | 12/03/2018 | Add features section |

| man_1 | 10/03/2017 | Document creation |

Very linked with issue:

1408 [Feature request] Add Created and Updated datetime on all page

As with #1408, this would be a great candidate for a third party Plugin.

[oliviernguyenquoc]

Ok I will see if I have some time to do it.

If anyone see an existing third party plugin, please let me know.

As this is a candidate for a third party plugin, I am closing this.

@oliviernguyenquoc hi i'm also interested in this, have you implemented this?

[oliviernguyenquoc]

@Ir1d No didn't have time for it

@oliviernguyenquoc @Ir1d did you found the solution? I was also looking for such functionality but without success, so I wrote something that satisfies me at least:

it will change the ' {{ git_blame_history }}' wherever you put it in your markdown file and check the git history for this file up to N number of commits.

Still thinking about the proper name and to improve it a bit. But if it will make sense, then I will publish it as a third-party plugin.
