title: SonarQube - How LOC is calculated
body: <p>I am using SonarQube Developer Edition 5.6.7 (LTS) and have bought a license supporting 5 million LOC. We are using RBAC and SonarQube runner by having a project key and templates.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to know:</p>
  
  <p>a. How are is the LOC usage calculated - suppose if I have a project which is scanned twice using different project keys -- will this cause duplicity? What should be the best way to scan the same project at different </p>
  
  <p>b. I wish to analyze the same project using Manual and then as part of a CI cycle -- How can I publish two different reports without consuming extra LOC?</p>
  
  <p>c. Using the multibranch plugin allows me to scan and share results in the same project. However, how can I get the results via an API so that if I wish to publish the results to a dashboard reporting tool branch wise -- I can use that API. </p>
