Thanks Phil for the response, I guess I was thinking of a debug report such as: Files Analyzed:19,543 Folders Analyzed:343 Total lines of code analyzed: 1,544,346 Total lines of code in source: 1,244,346 Total lines of code in destination: 1,944,346 Total lines with exact matches: 856,644 Unique lines in source: 400,546 Unique lines in destination: 850,546 Similarity of source to destination: 45% Exact matches of greater than 25 contiguous lines of code: 943 Exact matches of greater than 5 contiguous lines of code: 46,733
I looked into the plagiarism-detector tools and haven't found anything yet that does PHP, and the command line diff tools "should" be able to output this type of report, I just figured that all of this info, with the exception of the last 2 would be already tracked in the software and just need to be output somewhere.
