code-forensics

by Silvio Montanar

code-forensics

code-forensics is a toolset for analysing codebases stored in a version control system. It leverages the repository logs, or version history data, to perform deep analyses with regards to complexity, logical coupling, authors coupling and to inspect the evolution in time of different parts of a software system with respect to metrics like code churn and number of revisions.

This project is based on the excellent work of Adam Tornhill and his command line tool Code Maat. The majority of the analysis that code-forensics performs are actually described in Adam's book Your Code as a Crime Scene.
