Data and material for: "Mining file histories: should we consider branches?"

This repository is the online appendix of our paper: Vladimir Kovalenko, Fabio Palomba, and Alberto Bacchelli. 2018. Mining file histories: should we consider branches? In Proceedings of the 33rd ACM/IEEE International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE 2018). Association for Computing Machinery, New York, NY, USA, 202–213. DOI The <code>results</code> folder contains full results per project for RQ1 and for the reviewer recommendation part of RQ2, as well as lists of projects used for the evaluation of defect prediction and change recommendation algorithms. The rest of the results are provided in the paper. The code that we have used to download and process the data (code reviews, repositories, and change recommendation) is located in the <code>processor</code> folder. The <code>processor</code> depends on <code>git2neo</code> -- a tool to load Git metadata to neo4j databases and retrieve the histories, which is described in Section III.B of the paper.<br> This release of <code>git2neo</code> is provided as is to facilitate the evaluation and reproducibility of our work.
