LOC should be important than commits
Graphs, stats, Most experienced in
title etc. currently mostly depend on the number of commits. This is illogical, because ten one-line commits become more important than one 1000-line commit.
The website displays me as a PHP developer just because I've made a lot of small PHP commits. This is silly.
I prefer the current behaviour:
On the assumption that each commit represents a logical change unit, the current behaviour seems to make sense.
I am very suspicious of commits that have a huge number of changed lines: Either the developer has kept his work private for a long time, or it was developed in another repository. In my experience the first behaviour pattern is very problematic and risky to the project. In the second case the history is lost.
A variant of the external repository case occurs, when source code of libraries is committed to ease debugging. It would be misleading to credit the committer for this source code.
