git checkout master
python path-to-loc-history/main.py --format=csv --output=dataset.csv

You also can do:

python path-to-loc-history/main.py > dataset.csv

The analised files are by default python source files, if you ant the change which files will have the LOCs counted, you can use the "suffix" parameter. For example:

python path-to-loc-history/main.py --suffix="html,py" > dataset.csv

In that case, the LOCs of html and python file will be summed together.
