@techtonik If you need to analyze a mercurial project, you can use https://github.com/frej/fast-export, to first convert your repo to a git repository for analysis.
There's https://labs.freehackers.org/projects/hgactivity, but apart from that I don't know of any mercurial specific tools.
https://labs.freehackers.org/projects/hgactivity/wiki gives better picture. I also found https://bitbucket.org/mg/hgchart/wiki/Home
Anyway, some awesome page linking to all such tools would be awesome. There is also http://statcvs.sourceforge.net/ and http://statsvn.org/ with nice graphs that could probably be reused.
Right. I won't be linking to other projects - I think there are better places for such lists. It also needs to be said that while there are many projects that gather commit statistics from different kinds of repositories, gitinspector has a very specific design goal and use case - something that those projects don't share. This is why it got created in the first place. See https://github.com/ejwa/gitinspector/wiki/Contributing#what-to-consider-when-writing-code-for-new-statistics.
I don't know any better place for such list. If you know one - tell me.
There are many discussions on Stackoverflow concerning this, for example; http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9282346/tortoisehg-mercurial-project-statistics-and-reports/9283466#9283466
There are also a few more extensions on the mercurial wiki; https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/UsingExtensions
Those are the first that comes to mind. Maybe it would also be possible to get a list of software onto wikipedia. Similar lists exist for other software branches, so why not repo statistics as well. I'm guessing that nobody has taken the time to make such a list yet.
Wikipedia may remove lists that are non-significant, so nobody wants to invest time in that. It also needs references in media for every piece of software. There was attempt to remove Spyder IDE page, so I doubt that any lesser tool has much chance to survive there.
Hi @techtonik. A private page for each tool is probably senseless and would get removed, yes. However, it might work to add a list such as one of these;
Links without primary page are also get removed from those lists. I had multiple IRC software links removed due to this reason.
Is there any list of open source projects that provide the same functionality? I am looking to gathers stats on Mercurial commit size, which
gitinspector
doesn't provide, unfortunately.
