An FYI for all committers: create an account on GitHub (if you don't already
have one) and add your @apache.org email address to it, and within a few hours
you'll show up in the contributor graphs. I tried this and am now showing up
there:
https://github.com/apache/ofbiz/graphs/contributors
If nothing else it's entertaining, I had no idea that I had this volume of
commits since OFBiz joined the ASF (750k lines added, 135k lines removed; note
that changes to lines show up in both counts).
I only did this myself yesterday, after Ean mentioned it. I've actually
been on github for a bit now. But, with my @apache.org email attached
to my account, it might actually improve my standings.
FYI, I believe that large spike that is at the start of my graph(I'm
eigood, which is doogie backwards), is when I was committing the
generics markup.
On a side note, my commit count is relatively low... ie most commits with a
larger number of changes. I remember working more than way before using git...
perhaps with its explicit approach to saying which files to include it
encourages that more (unless you use git commit -a), or perhaps for other
reasons my habits have changed.
It's not just that you can selectively pick which files; git add -i
allows you to selectively choose chunks.
I don't get nearly as fancy as what Adam described recently with his rebase
approach, but to his point I find my commits being much cleaner and better
organized.
I split up my work into smaller commits(lines-per-commit is smaller), so
that it allows others to review it easier.
