TODO

Fixes and ideas for the future

Use an in-memory database

The goal is to be able to keep associations & be able to make request on them, without having to maintain various data structures.

I imagine i could just use ActiveRecords for Ranges & Commit but i fear its the impact on the code. I would like to keep the codebase as clean as possible.

Merge users

Set-up a config file, either global or per repository With id => names associations, so we can merge users who commit with various names/emails/etc

- name: "John Smith <john.smith@company.com>", 
  match:
    - "John S. <john@example.com>",
    - "John Smith <john.s@example.com>",
    - "J. Smith <smith@example.com>"
- name: "Foo Bar <foobar@company.com>",
  match:
    - "Foo B. <foobar@example.com>"
    - "Foo Bar <foobar@company.com>"

Per user scotch

Different users have a different commit style & frequency. We should be able to define a per-user scotch.

Automatic scotch : Use median delay between consecutive commits, per user

def median(array)
  sorted = array.sort
  len = sorted.length
  return (sorted[(len - 1) / 2] + sorted[len / 2]) / 2.0
end
