[yocto-ab] YP Advisory Board: raw metrics

[Nicolas Dechesne]

hi Jeff,

thanks for showing this and sharing the link.

If we take a look at the top repo, we see

Commits are counted once (of course), and since several of these trees are
'combined' together, most commits end up (wrongly?) in poky-contrib. We
probably want to show that in a different way. I can guess that the trees
are processed in a specific 'order' and that each commit is attributed to a
repo when it is first met. So that means that the ordered list we provide
is important, and we need to decide how we want to look at the data.

There are 2 possible orders (for the main repo):
1. poky
2. bitbake
3. oe-core
4. meta-yocto
5. *-contrib

or

1. oe-core
2. bitbake
3. meta-yocto
4. poky
5. *-contrib

Both options should give different views. Based on the structure of our
development process, I suppose that the 2nd one makes more sense.

Some additional questions:

* Can we choose which branches in repo are processed? At the very least
-next branches should not be taken into account.
* Should we try to track only 'release' branches as much as possible
* Isn't poky-buildhistory irrelevant here? I think we should remove it
* Should we keep the -contrib trees?
* can you share the whole list of repo that are being used?

cheers
nico
