Don't count binary files #54

Open TomNaessens opened 9 years ago

TomNaessens commented 9 years ago

Some files are binary and are completely changed, even when there is only a single edition. An example is the vault file of Ansible which consists of 218 lines and is completely rewritten every time. We should detect and ignore these if possible and otherwise blacklist them to prevent distorting the stats.

This seems rather hard to do. Is it really worth it? Maybe we could just completely ignore lines of code contributed? #restartingThisDiscussionForTheMillionthTime

Procrat just does not want us to care because he's an ansible-config contributor.

Do you have any suggestions on how this could be done, @Silox ?
