I don't know if this is a bug or a user error. When running gitstats against our repository, we are seeing an insane number of lines reported.

Right now, Total lines = 10233355 when in reality we have maybe 10,000

I have even tried running gitstats against private only (no public) but the result is the same.

    Can you provide an example repository with the problem?

    Actually, I'm not sure if this is a valid bug or not. Something weird is definitely happening since there's no way we have 1million + lines of code.

    However, when we broke out the branches into individual repos, and I ran gitstats against each one, the number of lines reported was correct.

    I think this may have had something to do with double-counting public and private, as well as some extraneous code checked in? Not sure, just very weird. (Can't upload an example repository b/c it's all proprietary, private code).

    I can only guess, but cherry-picks are one thing that can lead into extraneous numbers with the current system of line counting.

    It would be nice if this could be reproduced with a public repository.
