Determining this threshold is nontrivial and case-dependent (i.e. changes in data files are usually much larger than code changes). #additions is just a stupid metric, as is #commits, or #anything really. We display these because we haven't got anything better. This is why G2 is something that should happen.
pinging @timodw ^^^^^^
I follow @iasoon, will look further into this in september together with him.
Above certain thresholds in commit size, the lines committed should not count towards "total additions" and "total deletions" as it renders a sensible interpretation of the metric void. So these should not count, or these metrics should not be displayed at all.
