Excerpt
The Mining Software Repositories (MSR) field analyzes and cross-links the rich data available in software repositories to uncover interesting and actionable information about software systems and projects. Examples of software repositories are:-
Historical repositories such as source control repositories, bug repositories, and archived communications record information about the evolution and progress of a project.
-
Run-time repositories such as deployment logs contain information about the execution and the usage of an application at a single or multiple deployment sites.
-
Code repositories such as Sourceforge.net and Google code contain the source code of various applications developed by several developers.
