That would match my second guess. I guess the tweaks are what make it hard to do the actual correspondance (there are 53 circles on the drawing if I counted correctly, and 156 directory in today's Git for example). The biggest dirs in number of files today are: ./builtin 99 ./t/t5515 128 ./t/t4013 144 ./Documentation 221 ./Documentation/RelNotes 242 . 378 ./t 774 The directories at 4e7a2eccc21c902918 (Thu Dec 29 01:31:26 2005 -0800) were: ./Documentation/technical 2 ./mozilla-sha1 2 ./arm 3 ./ppc 3 ./compat 4 ./Documentation/howto 8 ./templates 12 ./debian 14 ./t/t4100 14 ./t 62 ./Documentation 126 . 191 So, t/ would be a nice candidate for the big circle on the left hand side (small in 2005, but biggest as of now), and ./ would be the one on its right (used to be biggest, but no longer). Documentation/ is the one at the top (with subdirs howto/ and technical/ in 2005, and the new RelNotes/ today). I'm not sure where builtin/ is, it was probably tweaked too much (it's supposed to be rather big in 2015 and inexistant in 2005, without subdirs). -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/
