The responsibilities module shows a maximum of 10 files, per author, that each
author is responsible for. This fucntionality can be enabled by supplying -r
or --responsibilities to gitinspector. The parameter is also enabled if
--tda367 is specified.
Filtering can be specified using an arbitrary number of -x (or --exclude)
parameters. The filtering works in a similar fashion to an inverted grep,
meaning that matched file names will be excluded from the generated
statistics.
To accommodate this modification, the changing of working directory (when
a repository is specified) has been moved from the system module to the
main gitinspector module. This enables us to change directory in one go
when gitinspector starts, thus removing the need for the previous system
module.
The metrics module currently only includes a very simple ELOC (estimated lines
of code) metric, but will be expanded eventually with some other metrics.
If any missing files are detected during analysis, gitinspector reports them
in a list. If, on the other hand, the --checkout-missing option is supplied,
gitinspector will try to checkout any missing files instead.
