Commits are counted many times

Hello,

There's a really weird error in Ohloh, where commits are repeated. Check this, for example: https://www.ohloh.net/p/turbogears/contributors/17403207498930/commits

Cheers.

Same for Dojo ... http://www.ohloh.net/p/dojo/contributors

It doesn't seem like any basic multiple of the actual count. Reports me at 1600~ and should be 600~

There are multiple enlistments involved, but they all appear to be current.

Regards

It seems we are also affected by this over at inspircd. https://www.ohloh.net/p/inspircd/commits

All of these are indeed caused by the same bug which was introduced late last week.

In certain circumstances, Ohloh is importing commits which belong to any Subversion branch, not necessarily the branch which has been enlisted. When multiple branches from a single repository are added to the same project, these extra commits are obvious because they become duplicated.

It's going to take a while to clean up the mess this created -- we'll have to do fresh downloads of of the affected repositories. I hope to have it all cleared up by the end of the week.

Thanks, Robin

Apache XML Commons is also affected: https://www.ohloh.net/p/xml-commons. Tonnes of commits showing up from developers from other Apache projects who've never worked on XML Commons.
