I got the error below after executing repostat ./git_repo ./gitstat_output , is there a simple solution? Thank!

I would suggest to try python 3.8, because anyway according to issue https://github.com/vifactor/repostat/issues/198 v.3.9 does not work.

Thanks, with python 3.8.5 it worked!

According to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66112913/pandas-to-datetimetoday-throwing-error the issue is fixed in Pandas 1.1.3. Currently repostat uses 1.3.3 (since 1906cb61f3b447be4fd23d7e3d046284564d17c3), so it should be fine now?

If that's the case, this issue can be closed and the warning about Python 3.9 removed from the readme.
