Code analysis wrong
Hi there,
A while back, the Chicken project switched from subversion to Git. For some reason, after this switch, the code analysis page shows an insanely high drop in lines of code: http://www.ohloh.net/p/chicken/analyses/latest
I never noticed this before, but it looks like somewhere in 2008 the enlistment started downloading all code in the entire repository instead of just the code under the chicken/trunk subdirectory. The enlistment doesn't seem to have changed (I checked the ohloh history).
Could somebody check and fix this?
Hi Peter,
Sorry for the late response. There are a couple of things going on here.
First, it seems that Ohloh is still trying to track the Subversion repository. I am unable to ping this server today -- has it been taken offline? If so, it should be removed from Ohloh. The analysis on Ohloh will not update if there are any repositories that cannot be reached.
Once the Subversion has been removed, we can get a clean report that includes only the Git repository, and that might help to understand the problem.
Thanks,
Robin
It looks like the network on which that server is, is having some problems right now. The server should be up later today.
However, the trunk has been removed from subversion (but the history is still there), to save space in checkouts. The subversion repo is still being used for other things that used to be stored there and can't be converted to git.
I've removed the Subversion trunk from Ohloh.
If the directory does not exist today, Ohloh cannot track it, and that will prevent the project report from updating.
Argh, that means 5 years of project history is gone!
I know, sorry, this is a bummer. Someday I hope we can patch our Subversion importer to handle these cases.
