title: Any tools to get code churn metrics for a Subversion repository?
body: <p>I'm looking for any tools that can give you code churn metrics (graphs and charts would be even better) for a Subversion repository.</p>
  
  <p>One tool I know of is <a href="http://www.statsvn.org/" rel="noreferrer">statsvn</a> - a Java tool that creates some HTML reports and some code churn metrics.  Statsvn reports the number of lines modified (churned) by user over time, some descriptive stats on LOC per file and folder/subfolder, etc.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to know code churn in order to get a better idea of the state of the project.  Idea behind this inspired by the MS research: <a href="http://research.microsoft.com/research/pubs/view.aspx?type=Publication&amp;id=1359" rel="noreferrer">Use of Relative Code Churn Measures to Predict System Defect Density</a></p>
  
  <p>In a nutshell, the more that source code is churning (changing, whether adding new lines, deleting, changing,etc) the higher the probability that defects are being introduced into the system.  The MS research paper says that the number of defects produced can be predicted based on a number of relative code churn measures.</p>
  
  <p>I wanted to know if there are any others that are maybe open source, extensible, etc.</p>
