Description Jonah Graham CLA 2017-08-18 04:31:06 EDT
Perhaps I am simply misreading this, but AFAICT the https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.cdt/who is showing incorrect info. 

I expect the numbers to be different below due to differing methodologies, but not as different as they are. 


Git log shows:
$ git shortlog -s -n --all  --since=2017-05-18

The charts are created using data from all of the project's Git repositories, along with all of the Git repositories of all the subprojects (recursive).

I believe that the data shown here is accurate.

See Bug 478354.

Should we revisit this decision? 

We should at least provide some documentation or an FAQ entry in the handbook and maybe think about tweaking the text that accompanies the charts.
Comment 2 Jonah Graham CLA 2017-09-04 06:42:30 EDT
It is a little confusing as I hadn't realized that who showed subprojects, or that tcf was a subproject. This is made more confusing because not everything on that page shows subprojects (e.g. project lead/committers is for CDT only, not TCF)

> Should we revisit this decision? 

No, I think for the reason it was done is fine and useful.
Comment 3 Eclipse Genie CLA 2019-08-26 13:21:30 EDT
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

I think that we're done here. Reopen if I've made a horrible, horrible mistake.
