[–] northertech@fedia.io 15 points 1 week ago (10 children) It's 11 million lines of fucking code. 11 MILLION LINES. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 10 child comments replies: [–] Pika@sh.itjust.works 25 points 6 days ago* (3 children) This commit was the refactor commit from the private dev flow to the open source repo. The process basically added a lot of files and deleted a bunch as well. it was long overdue but I wouldn't expect constant 11m line code changes permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] northertech@fedia.io 1 point 6 days ago (2 children) You really don't understand what 11m lines of code is. Only a collective of humans over many years can create 11m lines of code. It is an absolute batshit insane amout of code. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Pika@sh.itjust.works 1 point 5 days ago (1 child) yea 11m changes is quite a bit at once but, I wouldn't expect a constant change like that. After all, the monorepo itself is a little over 3m lines, 1.37m of it being lang/locale files for every language for its front end, 600k of it is comments, and 1.5m is the rest of it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] northertech@fedia.io 1 point 5 days ago Wow, I thought the actual functional part was around 1m. I am going to check the loc to see if it makes sense in my second language, LLMs are pretty consistent on their translation errors. permalink fedilink source parent [–] EdTheMessenger@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago (5 children) It's obviously some kind of code reorganization, restructuring or reformating, don't be paranoid permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] nulluser@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (4 children) A refactoring would have a relatively similar number of subtractions as additions. This is almost entirely additions. This is not just refactoring. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] EdTheMessenger@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago (3 children) Not necessarily. Huge additions without matching deletions often happen during restructurings like vendorizing dependencies, importing external packages, generating bindings, or migrating private repos into a monorepo. In these cases new code canbbe introduced to repository and there will be no corresponding deletions in commit history. I've did similar restructurings myself, eg. Making automatically generated resources static permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 3 points 6 days ago* Yeah, some projects also ditch external dependencies to make their own permalink fedilink source parent [–] northertech@fedia.io 1 point 6 days ago (1 child) You have no idea what 11 million likes of code is do you? LibreOffice is 11m, Android is 12m, MySQL is 10m. Those projects took years to code not 9 months. I am going to have to ask you to stay in your lane, and I pray that is not Software Engineering. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] EdTheMessenger@lemmy.world 1 point 5 days ago* I’m not sure why you’re being so hostile, but you're fundamentally confusing a codebase's hand-written LoC with Git commit additions. Nobody is saying someone authored 11M lines. Commit fa3e8525 was a workspace reconciliation - importing external repository code, dependencies, and assets into the public repo for the first time, so exactly the type of thing I was talking about. Git counts all imported lines as additions. Before asking others to "stay in their lane", maybe make sure you understand how Git history handles repository imports and dependency tracking.
