Migrating a project from CVS to GIT
Hi,
I am one of the developers of the Invenio software .
In the last years we moved our source code from a CVS repository to a GIT repository.
At the same time we changed the policies for commits. I.e. with CVS every developer was committing directly to the central repository and than if needed, changing his code by patching with further commits.
With GIT, each developer has his own private repository and push to the central repository big commits containing basically entire features already mainly proof-checked.
This lead to the status where currently, with GIT it looks like we are doing much less commits than in the past, while it's true the contrary, i.e. Invenio is more and more developed in this last year.
So this is a proposal for a change in how the current statistic is calculated, namely instead of considering commits (which really depends a lot on the policy of development), to look at the number of lines of code added and/or changed.
Cheers!
Samuele
