Human readable codebase figures
Is there a way to display figures on a project's codebase (lines of code, comments, blanks plus their %) on top of the code history graphs?
LOC figures are only displayed in the project cost box, I think it would make more sense to display them in the code history section. Also, knowing what part of a codebase is represented by comments would be very useful.
This is true ... would be nice.
As a somewhat connected thought.... I've not really played with the compare project feature yet, but are those figures on there as well in a nice easy to read format?
I'll have a play and return in a few
Edit
Back.
Okie, compare project is rather sweet, but it would be sweeter if we could have the real values (and there are plenty of metrics suitable) on the page in some sort of table.
It'd just give us metric nutters something extra to obsess over :P
and if I may add an extra suggestion, you should really make these comparative graphs linkable via a permalink as a first step towards widgetification.
Wikimatrix has a nice system of permalinks/badges for their comparison engine you may want to take a look at.
yeah, could be interesting to have those as widgets... though I'm sure some projects will feel other projects are being unfriendly doing Hey look at our activity compared to ProjectWhatever
Oooh, another idea ... the LOC/Comments/blanks graphs .... think it would be possible to do that in compare projects style? Not entirely sure how that would work ... maybe using 3 colours (one for each project) and having a different shade of the colour for each of the components? So a polychromatic (big word, hopefully the right one :P) version of the single project one....
