[feature request] Allow users to change the order of repos in Code Location list

Hi,

Is there a way to re-order repositories that appear in Code Location drop-down list? Or even an option to hide one of them at all?

The actual reason of asking this question is that for Embox project Browse Code shows wiki source repository by default instead of browsing trunk which contains the real code.

So how does Ohloh determine in which order to browse available repositories? I noticed that it does not match with the order in which they are listed in crawler settings.

Compare:

Thanks in advance.

Hi Eldar,
Sorry for the delay.

Unfortunately, we don't store the code locations in any particular order in our database. Ideally, I think, there would be a way to allow project owners to mark a particular code location as the default (and indicate what effects that should really have for various metrics, search, etc.) when adding it to Ohloh, and this data would then get passed through to the code browser if they marked that as a desired effect... but we don't have those fields or mechanisms there today. I'll add this request to our list.

thank you for you feedback!
