Store Diff Info

FishEye 1.5 Documentation

Index

To find this setting, open the FishEye Admininistration Screen, then Repository Settings.

'Store Diff Info' is a value that can be toggled on or off. On is the default setting for new repositories. Repositories created before FishEye 1.5 will default to off.

After setting this value to on, a full re-index of your repository is required so that FishEye can collect diff info for all revisions in your repository.

Considerations for the Store Diff Info Setting

1. Required for per-author line graphs

Leaving this option off will disable per-author line graphs.

2. Re-index Required for Per-author Line Graphs

Diff info is always stored for CVS repositories. Note that a full re-index is required to enable per author charts after upgrading from FishEye 1.4.3 or earlier.

3. Perforce Repository Indexing Performance Impact

Turning 'Store Diff Info' on for Perforce repositories requires FishEye to make extra requests to your depot in order to collect the diffs. This may substantially increase the time it takes to scan your repository.

CVS and Subversion repository scan times are not affected by this setting.
