UML time visualization

I am sure that many of you have used or at least heard about Gource and Code Swarm. They are very nice tools for visualizing the history of fixing a project as it develops.

I'm interested in a similar repo-driven animation of the code itself in the form of UML, as it evolves over time.

I worked a lot on refactoring and cleaning up the project code base over the past 3 years, and it would be very accurate to demonstrate this in material form for guidance. Of course, the "before" and "after" diagrams will work, but where is the fun ?: P

Is there such a tool? In particular, I'm looking for ObjC ++, but I'm interested in what is available in any language.

Cut out any other tools you could make for a cool demo. Refactoring is sometimes difficult to sell without having anything to show!

Having convinced your CEO of the importance of this kind of technical materials, it is always very complex. If you can show the animated history of UML, I don’t think it would be appreciated by anyone other than an engineer.

My approach is to "show results." If you have a bug / change tracking tool and you are refactoring correctly, the time spent on errors or changes should fall somehow.
