摘要: Understanding detailed changes done to source code is of great importance in software maintenance. We present Code Flows, a method visualize the evolution geared understanding fine and mid-level scale across several file versions. enhance an existing visual metaphor depict structure with techniques that emphasize both following unchanged as well detecting highlighting important events such drift, splits, merges, insertions deletions. The illustrated analysis real-world C++ system.
