Player mode uses your custom Wikivideos controls.

Summary

"Made with Gource. I used Gravatars associated with Git emails, so apologies if your avatar was not included. Also, sorry if Gource got your name wrong." Note that this is not really an accurate visualization as it may not e.g. properly show how much was changed or how important the changes were and so on. There can be different videos with different parameters configuration (and these could be changed throughout the video as things speed up a lot later on).

This page is styled with a Wikimedia-like layout while preserving the Wikivideos player and chapter workflow.
