We could have a cryptonerd penis measuring contest all day long with this commit versus that commit. I don't see investors taking that route.

Perhaps you are right but as long as there are people such as Raptor_73 who apparently do think those metrics are important, my bolded questions should probably be answered instead of dismissed.

How many of Dash commits are actually specific to the Dash project?

How many (and percentage) code modules are new or significantly modified?

How many (and percentage) lines of new or significantly modified code?


I'm not sure what he thinks, but the numbers look quite impressive so I guess that's why he posted them. Make of them what you will.

Instead of posting your 'bolded questions' rhetorically, why don't you research and post the winning answers, should you find them.

Sure, I'll start.



Thus I estimate that Dash has 218 commits that aren't in Bitcoin. The number may be off slightly due to the repos likely being a bit out of sync with each other.

Not bad, but well under even the paltry 1200 or so attributed to another project that is alleged to be a clone with "no development" so maybe not that impressive either. I'm not sure, what do you think?



This comparison is pretty much meaningless imo but in case you want to continue it's better to compare similar branches. For Dash corresponding Bitcoin branch is 0.10, not master.



So difference is somewhere around 2100 commits currently
