I have a hard time understanding what this graph actually shows or which point it proves.

Naturally with many new contributors the average numbers per contributor decreases.

To prove your claim wouldn't you share a graph of total LOC versus number of contributors? For #curl I believe the contributor counts grows faster than the codebase.

#statistics


In the #curl project, we are picking up new commit authors and contributors to the project faster than the code base is growing...

Yes, here's a new graph!

Lines of code per author + contributor

#curl



Is there any good resource for the nitty-gritty details of building #Curl (mostly concerned with the library) for Windows, specifically with MSVC?

I muddled through getting things working from the little bit in the Readme.md in the winbuild folder, but I could really use more, especially since I'm having a hell of a time getting it to compile with native SSL support from within Visual Studio (weirdly, I can get it fine from a CLI session?).

Web searches seem to really love proffering everything.curl.dev/ to me, but it'd be barely more helpful even if it wasn't entirely based on out-of-date stuff that doesn't apply anymore :(

@jolle that seems to sum it up pretty well 🙂

My total share of all #curl commits is shrinking over time. At 56.6% right now.


Number of commits per committers in #curl. 1242 commit authors. Both axis are log scaled.

the median age a CVE has existed in code when reported in #curl is 7.7 years!
#curl


lines of code per known vulnerability in #curl, 1998 - 2023. I purposely leave out the last year simply because it is a little too new code there to be fair - and that makes the graph really spike.

Note also that this treats all vulns equal, no matter which severity

If you want to improve #curl as shipped in distributions, join us in March at curl distro discussion: github.com/curl/curl/wiki/curl…

I ran into good people from #homebrew yesterday so now we will get attendance from them as well!

Stocking up. Come find me at #FOSDEM for a #curl sticker or two.


trurl: command line tool for URL parsing and manipulation

One software thing I built at Facebook was called Host — basically a PHP library to manipulate website hostnames without error-prone regular expressions, bad assumptions and “hunting for dots”. It saved a lot of potential problems and a moderate amount of CPU (0.1%+?) and I can see the same thinking here.

If you’re manipulating URLs, you should try this:

Toying with a new project graph in #curl that I find fascinating: the ratio between lines of code divided per number of lines of docs - in the git repository over the last 24 years.

The number of lines of code has increased more than 8x in this period, from less than 20K lines to over 160K lines.
