@dlyle65535 the thing I'm not fully understanding is how this is working in
my local branch. Doing a git fetch and checkout shouldn't merge anything from
master, so the most recent master shouldn't be in this test run. Doing a git
pull does a fetch and merge, which I would anticipate causing problems.
@jjmeyer0 Yeah, that's what I thought as well. Again, unclear yet why this
is not a problem locally. Furthermore, it wasn't a problem in the last commit I
had that I believe had the newline. I'll give it a shot anyhow.

> Calculating set cardinality can be a useful tool for a security analyst. For
> instance, a large volume of non-unique src ip addresses hitting your network
> may be an indication that you are currently under attack. There have been
> many advancements in distinct value (DV) estimation over the years. We have
> seen implementations evolve from K-Minimum-Values (KMV), to LogLog, to
> HyperLogLog, and now to Google's much-improved HyperLogLogPlu algorithm. The
> key improvements in this latest manifestation of the algorithm are:
> moves to a 64-bit hash
> handles sparse sets
> is more accurate with small cardinality
> This Jira tracks the effort to add a HyperLogLogPlus implementation to Metron.
