In the latest beta deployment, nixpkgs (>1.065.000 commits, about 1300 of which have been found to include AI stuff) doesn't get an F anymore but rather "only" an E, because 1300 commits is basically nothing against the >1.063.000 untainted commits. I like this direction a lot c:

@fugi I have recused myself from the maintainer position of slopscore (other wonderful individuals cover it better than I ever did) and thus I haven't followed basically anything that has happened in the past month or so.

I implemented the 5000 limit, which is why I know it existed, but going through the codebase right now, it seems like it is gone. So, yeah, I think we actually do scan everything.

commit 0a2f489e8a1893092d7dc0df47071354aae6e529

Author: ash lea <example@thisismyactual.email>

    remove --depth=5000 from git clone



    did some testing, --depth=5000 seems to require significantly more processing

    on the server side depending on the size of the repo (and possibly some

    software-specific caching characteristics). can sometimes result in time and

    bandwidth savings, but for extremely large repos like linux or nixpkgs is

    extremely slow and sometimes results in timeouts

@fugi Me neither!! Which is why I added the 5000-limit in the first place. I couldn't possibly have imagined that retrieving >1Mil. commits could somehow be faster than limiting it to only 5000 commits
