Heh, thanks Sean. If only more developers had the grace and wisdom to offer free beer while requesting help.... :-) I hear you on the license detections. I'm hoping we'll have more hands on the Ohloh ... [More] code soon, and we'll finally have cycles to drill into this feature and harden it a bit. [Less]

@Piet, Yes, we've done some experiments locally with CVSup, and have been intending to use it for a long time. It just seems like something else is always demanding our attention. @anholt, That's ... [More] great! I'll be very interested in how this works out. Thanks for helping out. Keep me posted! [Less]

Update re: GNOME. We've finished an update.

We are using .inl as file extension for inline c++ files. Maybe add .inl as C++ file extension?

Hi jrshaw, the problem is that the project is enlisted in this subversion enlistment: https://panopticode.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/panopticode/trunk/ -- which doesn't exist anymore. From doing an ... [More] 'svn ls', I can only see: panopticode-java/ peacock/ website/ under panopticode. I'm not sure which are appropriate, so I'll let you edit which of those directories it should be enlisted in instead. Thanks! [Less]

Among the choices for failing enlistment, there should be the option to specify that a project at least provides source tarballs. Even better would be to allow specifying the directories which contain those tarballs.

Dear Robin, Thanks very much for your answer. For point 2 and 3, a checkbox would be a good idea and will fit our wishes. For the point 1, we have a backup of the SVN before 2007-09-21. Maybe we will ... [More] be able soon to add it as a third entlistment, as an old repository (checkbox checked), to have all lost information ;-). Is that rigth ? Pierre [Less]

It's probably fine to add a second branch if you like. You're right, you'll double-count the lines of code, but I think getting all of the commit history is more important. However, you might not be ... [More] able to add the branch. In order to add the branch to Ohloh, it has to still exist today. Because the branch was moved instead of copied, that branch no longer exists in today's tree. I don't think you can technically add it to Ohloh. The fix is many months away at least. I am currently beta-testing a new Subversion importer which downloads the entire repository, not just a single branch. However, this just solves the download part of the problem. After that, there are a lot of changes required to our database, analysis system, and UI. This is one of the loudest feature requests on Ohloh, and I keep slugging away at it. Regarding the graph, I think this was by design. At one point we were over a month behind on updates, and the comparison graphs were getting messed up. I'll post a bug to get it fixed properly.

bzr support. I can help add this if needs be :)

It would be cool if your computation of the theoretical cost of a project could reward for refactoring and penalize for rampant cut-n-paste reuse, rather than basing it purely on LOC. In a mature ... [More] codebase, a lot of the value comes from the simplicity and maintainability of well-factored code and removal of obsolete cruft. Maybe some complexity analysis (e.g., gzip compression ratio) and counting commit log entries per LOC might provide some useful metrics along these lines. [Less]
