GNU Octave/Matlab undetected code

Hi,
I would like to notify a possible bug in the detection of GNU Octave/Matlab code (Matlab language).

To trace the possible bug, please consider the behavior of the following commit analysis:

which refers to the real commit:

The commit analysis states: No code was detected in this commit despite the real commit added approximately 200 lines (blanks + comments + code).

Best regards,

Daniele

Hi Daniele,

This looks like a problem in Ohloh's conversion of the CVS repository. Internally, we try to group the CVS file changes into a atomic commits (which CVS doesn't actually support), and every now and then this doesn't quite work properly. What will likely happen is that after the next change to CVS, the missing file will appear as part of the next commit.

This is a bug in Ohloh, and I'm not quite sure what the cause is. It's usually not reproducible, and it depends upon the specific response from the CVS server when asked for the code at a precise timestamp.

I've started a clean re-import of the project, which will probably clean up the mistake. I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks,
Robin

Hi Robin,

as you supposed, the re-import seems to have resolved the missing file problem.

Thank you,

Daniele
