Hi Noam, I guess that it won't be too hard if the unchanged files will not be analyzed, but if a file has a couple of lines changed that completely complicates the situation, since you'll have to do some sort of diff approach over the AST, which might not be trivial. For the latter case, you might find diff-cover (https://github.com/edx/diff-cover) useful. /Claudiu _______________________________________________ code-quality mailing list code-quality@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/code-quality
