Hi everyone
It took a while - 2109 commits by git's counting (which is a bit flawed as
a few commits that went into 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 are counted twice). That's
the most we ever had between two major releases (for comparison, the
switch from Gtk to Qt (3.1->4.0) was only 1643 commits. And from the start
of git history to 3.1 it took 2189 commits. So yes, a massive amount of
changes went in since 4.4 was released on February 4.
Who are the top contributors of code?
753 Dirk Hohndel
327 Tomaz Canabrava
188 Miika Turkia
161 Gehad Elrobey
87 Robert Helling
74 Anton Lundin
68 Grace Karanja
66 Lubomir I. Ivanov
58 Rick Walsh
51 Claudiu Olteanu
45 Salvador Cuñat
36 Guido Lerch
30 Willem Ferguson
27 Joakim Bygdell
23 Jan Darowski
21 Linus Torvalds
16 Guillaume GARDET
14 Sergey Starosek
12 Marcos CARDINOT
11 Sander Kleijwegt
6 Patrick Valsecchi
6 Sebastian Kügler
4 Gaetan Bisson
4 Tim Wootton
3 Henrik Brautaset Aronsen
3 Thiago Macieira
3 Venkatesh Shukla
2 Giorgio Marzano
2 Martin Long
2 Paul-Erik Törrönen
2 pestophagous
1 Jan Mulder
1 Pedro Neves
1 Torstein Husebø
1 Yousef Hamza
My numbers are misleading as every pull of translations and many other
things end up counting as a commit from me. So Tomaz, Miika, Gehad,
Robert, Andton, Grace, Lubomir, Rick, Claudiu, Salvador, Guido...
where do I stop the list without just repeating what's above?
Thanks to all of you for your hard work.
What's interesting is how many new people are in this list. GSoC students,
but also quite a few others who haven't contributed before. 35 people
sent at least one commit, 20 sent more than 10 commits. For comparison,
from the start of Subsurface until the last Gtk release (3.1.1) only 15
different developers had 10 or more commits. And of those 15 only 7 are
still in the 20 top committers of this release...
So what am I trying to say? I think we're a very healthy project.
What is under-represented in all the numbers above is the amazing work
done by the translators on the team. We have 86 translators on Transifex.
We have 20 languages that are complete enough for me to include them. We
have a user manual in 4 languages, we have a web page that is (at least
the key pages) available in 9 languages.
I'm incredibly proud of how far we've gotten. I'm incredibly proud of this
release.
Thanks to all of you for your hard work, your patience, your commitment
and most of all for making this fun for me (and hopefully for everyone
involved).
So what's next?
- collect fixes and translation updates for the inevitable 4.5.1
- get the mobile app (dare I say apps?) to the point where we can have a beta
- get started on Subsurface 4.6
To many more years of fun developing dive log software
Thanks
/D
