Not too late at all - it could even be animated:

The tool that was used to make that, gource, can be run from the command 
line, and therefore from cron:

The only downside with that visualization is that it takes a large 
screen to really see what's going on.  Might be nice to also have some 
other automated graphic view - what else is floating around in the Git 
world for that?
