[Bigbang-dev] BigBang: version control analysis

Hi guys, Just an update, mainly for Aryan's benefit since he couldn't make the meeting today. Ven -- please sign up for the development mailing list here, where I will be sending emails like this in the future: https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/bigbang-dev Aryan -- Ven is starting to dig into analyzing Git repositories by unpacking the Git commit network. This is the network you see in visualizations like these <https://github.com/sbenthall/bigbang/network>. He's working on these tickets for next week: https://github.com/sbenthall/bigbang/issues/135 https://github.com/sbenthall/bigbang/issues/136 What we discovered while looking at the GitRepo <https://github.com/sbenthall/bigbang/blob/master/git_data/GitRepo.py> code is that the Pandas dataframe does not yet have in it two kinds of data about the commits: * information about which commit each commit is a descendant of in the network. It might be the descendant of more than one commit if it is a 'merge' commit, for example. * the information about the 'diff' of each commit. Could you take a look at this and see if it's feasible to add this to GitRepo? I've made a ticket for this and assigned it to you. https://github.com/sbenthall/bigbang/issues/137 Looking forward to seeing you both on Wednesday, Seb
