Enlisting just the lib folder?
I have seen some people talking about checked in dependencies throwing off some of the code analysis features. In addition to that, it seems like these checked in dependencies would also be throwing off commit counts and such.
If we have projects like this (say an examples directory with dependencies checked in) would it make sense to just enlist the directories that contain the actual source for the project rather than the project root which (at least in the case of my projects) might include the examples directory with checked in dependencies?
Hi Beau,
If it's practical for you, it may be better to separately enlist each subdirectory of your project.
However, even this is not perfect. It will give you correct line counts, but it may miscount the commits, since a commit that now appears in multiple enlistments will get counted multiple times by Ohloh, once for each enlistment it appears in.
If you only have one subdirectory, then this doesn't apply.
Eventually, and I can't guess when, we'll implement an ability to ignore directories and files, but until then it is probably worth experimenting with enlisting selected subdirectories, and see which report you like better ;-).
Thanks,
Robin
