Website improvement: more data #36

Closed madebr closed 3 years ago

Adding more information to the table would be useful to decide the usefulness of an update.

And finally, by changing the order of the table older or seldom updates can be ranked higher.

Great update! The site feels very responsive too.

The current commit count column is a bit weird though. Would it be possible to calculate the #of commits between the current and the new version tag?

Never mind!!!! I did not see the missing columns...

There are probably some corner cases, and obviously there's always some weird case (like a negative commit difference when branches diverge).

The big thing with this update is that I now have to clone the repository of every library. That's a bit time consuming but not excessive. On the plus side, we have access to all the information we want

Too bad github's api does not allow to get this information then. It's nice to have 2 metrics for knowing how old a release is: time and number of commits. These are actionable imho.

It would also be interesting to know, for cci.YYYYMMDD releases, how much the package has continued. I would not add that information to the release table though.
