Some statistics about PHP and the Linux kernel code base

gistfile1.txt

PHP:
 
r00t:php# git log --format=%H --numstat --no-merges | awk 'NF==3 {plus+=$1; minus+=$2} END {printf("+%d, -%d, diff=%d, rate=%0.4f\n", plus, minus, plus-minus,minus/plus)}'
+10281181, -7373425, diff=2907756, rate=0.7172
 
Linux kernel:
 
r00t:linux# git log --format=%H --numstat --no-merges | awk 'NF==3 {plus+=$1; minus+=$2} END {printf("+%d, -%d, diff=%d, rate=%0.4f\n", plus, minus, plus-minus,minus/plus)}'
+38145990, -20701172, diff=17444818, rate=0.542
 
PHP: 0.7172
Linux: 0.542
 
As we can see the Linux kernel code base is actively growing in comparison with the PHP code base.
