Exclude subdirectory from code analysis?

I've commited 3rd party library to my repository and now my few-month project is estimated to be 23-man-year effort.

Is it possible to exclude this code?

or perhaps, could you automatically recognize inclusion of such code? (it's on ohloh too, so all you need to do is to checksum files and compare them)

Hi porneL,

We don't currently allow this, but it is a pretty common request, so it's definitely on our radar.

You're right that we could do a pretty thorough job of detecting 3rd party libraries automatically, since Ohloh can recognize common files by their checksums. We do in fact store file checksums for just this purpose, but have not yet had time to build a feature around it.

Thanks,
Robin
