That's in the pipeline. I've done some work on that and sent the info to Joey. I've basically removed all automated l10n-sync commits, both for components and the manual, and some selected other commits (related to CVS->SVN conversion for example); in total 5254 commits, including all the really HUGE ones, get removed). Only part of 2004 remains really cluttered, but that's simply because there was a huge amount of development and translations going on. Other advantage is that it cuts down a lot on the time to generate the frames for the video. Joey was talking about over a day; with the cleanup I can now generate the frames for the full history in 50 minutes on my laptop... I've also tried two other changes that turned out to help a lot: - increase frame size from 640x480 to 800x600; this moves the history graph away to the left a bit - use 'EdgeLength=45'; this increases the distance between names and files (the diameter of the circle around names) I'd provide a video myself, but have problems generating one with sufficient quality (mencode output sucks and ffmpeg segfaults on me). And there is a weird bug in the code which really changes how the result looks: http://code.google.com/p/codeswarm/issues/detail?id=61 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
