iFolder enlistment correct but history is partial
The iFolder project only reports it's existence as 1 year. Only people who have commited code in the last year show up. Is there a way to pull the full SVN history into account? Thanks!
Hi Calvin,
Sorry, this is a limitation in our Subversion importer.
Our log parser is pretty simple. It cannot follow branching operations or directory moves.
It looks like this project moved from /branches/ifolder_3_4 to /trunk on 2006-10-18. Since Ohloh can't follow that move, any history before this time is invisible to Ohloh.
One thing you can try is to add the /branches/ifolder_3_4 directory as a separate enlistment on Ohloh. This will have the negative effect of doubling the total lines of code, since Ohloh doesn't really know that these enlisments are related, and they will be treated as two totally separate pieces of code. However, this will get all of the commits from this branch into the report.
Sadly, it does appear that the /branches/ifolder_3_4 directory only goes back to 2005-12-15, when it was itself copied from /trunk! That move will also stump the Ohloh parser, so the history will only reach back that far.
A lot of projects are truncated by Ohloh this way, and I do hope we'll be able to get this fixed.
Robin
