Due to a bug in package igraph (https://github.com/igraph/rigraph/issues/1158), which is present in their versions 2.0.0 to 2.0.3, the functions metrics.scale.freeness and metrics.is.scale.free can currently not be used with these igraph versions. If you need to call any of these two functions, you either need to install igraph version 1.6.0 or wait until the bug in igraph is fixed in a future version of igraph.
Added
Add issue-based artifact-networks, in which issues form vertices connected by edges that represent issue references. If possible, disambiguate duplicate JIRA issue references that originate from codeface-extraction (PR #244, PR #249, 98a93ee721a293410623aafe46890cfba9d81e72, 771bcc8d961d419b53a1e891e9dc536371f1143b, 368e79264adf5a5358c04518c94ad2e1c13e212b, fa3167c289c9785f3a5db03d9724848f1441a63d, 4646d581d5e1f63260692b396a8bd8f51b0da48fda, ed77bd726bf92e06c2fc9145a5847787a8d0588b)
Add a new split.data.by.bins function (not to be confused with a previously existing function that had the same name and was renamed in this context), which splits data based on given activity-based bins (PR #244, ece569ceaf557bb38cd0cfad437b69b30fe8a698, ed5feb214a123b605c9513262f187cfd72b9e1f4)

Test for the presence and validity of the bins attribute on network-, and data-splits (PR #249, c064affcfff2eb170d8bdcb39d837a7ff62b2cbd, 93051ab848ec94de138b0513dac22f6da0d20885)
Simplify call chain-, and branching-routes in network-splitting functions and consequently set the bins attribute on every output network-split (while minimizing recalculations) (PR #249, #256, PR #257, a1842e9be46596321ee86860fd87d17a3c88f50f, 8695fbe7f21ccaa3ccd6d1016e754017d387b1fa)
Rename split.data.by.bins into split.dataframe.by.bins as this it what it does (PR #244, ed5feb214a123b605c9513262f187cfd72b9e1f4)
Throw an error in split.data.time.based.by.timestamps if no custom event timestamps are available in the ProjectData object (6305adcee7f18747141994b00bdd94641f95e86f)
Enhance testing data by adding add_link and referenced_by issue events, which connect issues to form edges in issue-based artifact-networks. This includes duplicate edge information in JIRA data as produced by codeface-extraction (PR #244, 9f840c040d552e8639aa82c3dd537c189679b348, ea4fe8d3c84f948af6147cf0137e80181ebb7a1e, 6eb731102301b1af08f4affb40d1f8df94500e34)

Fixed
Reformat event.info.1 column of issue data according to the <issue-%source-%id> format, if the content of the event.info.1 field references another issue (PR #244, 62ff9d0f31adbefb3381936237dc4ab984e33acb)
Rename vertex attribute IssueEvent to Issue in multi-networks, to be consistent with bipartite-networks (PR #244, 26d7b7e9fd6d33d1c0a8a08f19c5c2e30346a3d9)
Fix an issue in activity-based splitting where elements close to the border of bins might be assigned to the wrong bin. The issue was caused by the usage of split.data.time.based inside split.data.activity.based to split data into the previously derived bins, when elements close to bin borders share the same timestamps. It is fixed by replacing split.data.time.based by split.data.by.bins (PR #244, ece569ceaf557bb38cd0cfad437b69b30fe8a698)
Remove the last range when using a sliding-window approach and the last range’s elements are fully contained in the second last range (PR #244, 48ef4fa685adf6e5d85281e5b90a8ed8f6aeb197, 943228fbc91eed6854dacafa7075441e58b22675)
Fix broken error logging in metrics.smallworldness (03e06881f06abf30d44b69d7988873f20b95232d)
Fix get.expanded.adjacency to work if the provided author list does not contain all authors from the network and add a warning when that happens since it causes some authors from the network to be lost in the resulting matrix (PR #248, ff59017e114b10812dcfb1704a19e01fc1586a13)
Fix get.expanded.adjacency.matrices to have correct names for the columns and rows (PR #248, PR #258, e72eff864a1cb1a4aecd430e450d4a6a5044fdf2, a53fab85358b223af43749a088ad02e9fbcb0a30)

Include removal of empty and deleted users in the setters of mails, commits, issues, and authors. For commits, also the committer.name column is now checked for deleted or empty users (PR #235, 08fbd3e11e33d060f42cbc6f729eaf60b48a6de7)
Check for empty values (i.e., values of length < 1) when updating configuration attributes and throw an error if a value is empty (9f36c544637ab4f4173408152d223b9b5098ce5a)
Fixed
Fix check for empty input files in utility read functions. Compared to unpresent files, empty files do not throw an error when reading them, a check for nrow(commit.data) < 1 is therefore required (PR #231, ecfa643cbc15975c3062af95c50ead02730b580f)
Fix various problems regarding the default classes of edge attributes and vertex attributes, and also make sure that the edge attributes for bipartite edges are chosen correctly (PR #240, 4275b93867c78d20d0bd116749c1e7603cd9d473, 98a6deb1b178a1fcf799c741906e99770c46a8d0, b8232c09b91df3412f703dd26c21c685bacd0321, a9535550d93207f466b315f33ea263a50e6c8924, 820a7631093d03ac5ccb7bf9923bd498f669120a)
Add argument to construct.edge.list.from.key.value.list function which differentiates if constructed edges are supposed to be artifact edges, in which case we check if the artifact attribute is present for edges and replace it by author.name. (PR #238, e2c9d6c39fb757c566ef4c4b18780cca247477cb, 7f42a91d4aa84e8c28c048925190637051e358a9)
Change edge construction algorithm for cochange-based artifact networks to respect the temporal order of data. This avoids duplicate edges. (PR #238, e2c9d6c39fb757c566ef4c4b18780cca247477cb)
Clarify that edges in issue-based artifact-networks are not available yet in README.md. (PR #238, 18a54f0241a28675dba4cdcbd433e88ec68d515a)
Fix bugs related to expanded adjacency matrices and update the initiation of sparse matrices to the most recent version of package Matrix, to replace deprecated and disfunct function calls. Due to this update, package versions prior to 1.3.0 of the Matrix package cannot be used any more. If the ‘install.R’ detects that a version prior to 1.3.0 is installed, it now automatically tries to re-install package Matrix once (PR #241, 573fab22a290e826e2bdd6e1f063cd2e87ed2167, 2f06252750354e4ed53b768bd212aacf1a350217)

Breaking Change: Rename existing vertex attributes for author vertices to be distinguishable from attributes for artifact vertices. With this change, the first word after add.vertex.attribute. now signifies the type of vertex the attribute applies to (PR #229, 75e8514d1d2f6222d2093679f4418e9171d3abf2)
Add parameter use.unfiltered.data to add.vertex.attribute.issue.*. This allows selecting whether the filtered or unfiltered issue data is used for calculating the attribute (PR #229, b77601dfa1372af5f58fb552cdb015401a344df7, 922258cb743614e0eeffcf38028acfc0a42a0332)
Improve handling of issue type in vertex attribute name for add.vertex.attribute.issue.*. The default attribute name still adjusts to the issue type, but this no longer happens if the same name is specified manually (PR #229, fe5dc61546b81c7779643c3b2b37c101a55217f8)

Adjust .drone.yml CI config to prevent pipeline fails: R version 3.3 is not tested any more as some packages are not available any more for this R version (ca6b474d773c045dd88a19aee905283a373df0a6). Also another docker container in the CI pipeline is used as there are problems with the previously used docker instance (937f797ee04b78a087ea84043d075e7ca7558d70)
Add remove.isolates parameter to extract.bipartite.network.from.network. The default value is FALSE, chosen to be consistent with get.bipartite.network and other network extraction methods. Previously, isolates were always removed (PR #226, b58394bde421e19eab3470f2266dfff9a7a2dca9, 079a256861a7621118b68bf09ba2dc53efc5f70e)
Fixed
Fix values in test for the eigenvector centrality as igraph has changed the calculation of this with version 1.2.7. Also put a warning that we recommend version 1.3.0 in install.R and document it in the README.md (25fb86277c7cc15b94ca0327bff4bb7e818ca09b, 1bcbca96d6dbaa2d4a28e830da963604682eac70)
Fix the filtering of the deleted user in util-read.R to always be lowercase as the deleted user can appear with different spellings (#214, 1b4072c7ec0e33a595e31d9e9d27bb5c133b1556)
Add check to get.first.activity.data to look for missing activity types.

Add functionality that allows to read any data source at any point in time, even after splitting. In this case, the read data is automatically cut to the corresponding range on the RangeData object (PR #201, 7f9394f528068f52957be67ab7e2efb733011c6b). Additionally, when changing the configuration parameters concerning additional data sources, the environment of a ProjectData object is no longer reset (PR #201, eed45ac1f97b4915ec42fb869f34359da1df4c60)
Add new configuration parameters commits.locked, mails.locked and issues.locked to ProjectConf which, when set to TRUE, prevent the respective getters from triggering the read of the data if it is not present yet (PR #201, 382167790e7d096b539eeed6464efeb9bb501d43)
Add support for classifying developers on the basis of more count-based classification metrics, including mail-count, mail-thread count, issue-count, issue-comment count, issue-commented-in count, and issue-created count (issue #70, PR #209, d7b2455ece9840caba7c3a46704d2a62a11bee57, 6f737c8859519867928acc4e545c89bfd91b1e2e)
Add bot filtering mechanism, which allows removing issues/mails/commits made by bots (838855ffbe6d404bcb447d470a97870b238754ae, dcce82de58e25c6a0f3c27c9a7c46fb35a47fced)

Changed/Improved
Breaking Change: Rename getters for main data sources: Unfiltered date is now acquired using get.<datasource>.unfiltered, filtered data is acquired using get.<datasource> (edf19cfee9c2855a1d968f37158b0fd2c196766a, e05f3448e1e2e8faaac219ed4ac818f82f3d8ff7)
Add check for empty network in metrics.hub.degree function. In the case of an empty network, a warning is being printed and NA is returned (PR #195, 4b164bebea1e8258cb93febf51271a4b6f486779)
Adjust the function ProjectData$get.artifacts: Rename its single parameter to data.sources and change the function so that it can extract the artifacts for multiple data sources at once. The default is still that only artifacts from the commit data are extracted. (PR #195, cf795f26652b00de5d717c703c688af55a972943, 70c05ecd1e3c0f10810acc2b2ae06a3eb8856317, 5a46ff4d428af7f301fe57d6e9e10421f553a9cc, fd767bb37ca608c28d9ff4a449415cc0e863d7ee)
Change the internal representation of empty data from NULL to empty data frames and adapt function get.cached.data.sources() of ProjectData which returns a vector of all data sources that are cached (including additional and filtered data sources) (PR #201, aec898e105ff5478fb75ba488b56c9c258a17a80, e55d088f926ae7a069761864855c179c04ed07dc, 24c222a21238cf0d21dfa750d8c951f39b4d0500); additionally, introduce new function is.data.source.cached() in util-data.R that returns a logical vector indicating which of the given data sources are cached (PR #201, b49cc5df4da04af9df2ae9bcdc7847fafb6befc9, 491e70c44dd71e4d51b40ee83bc8eb598d413bc0, 24c222a21238cf0d21dfa750d8c951f39b4d0500)

Fixed
Fix fencing issue timing data so that issue events “happen” after the issue was created. Since only commit_added events are affected, that only happens for these. (issue #185, 627873c641410182ca8fee0e78b95d7bda1e8e6b, 6ff585d9da1da3432668605f0c09f8e182ad0d2f)

Fix issue where the data path on RangeData objects was wrong in special cases. Introduce the (private) flag built.from.range.data.read that is set according to how the object has been created (splitting manually or reading codeface ranges) and calculating the data path accordingly (PR #199, cce95279692b8d29ae464e12cfe48e923f417ac7, 917bf64e7a439c6a33b922e04929030479722bd1, 169c034c2364fc56507573e6f2316cc432631ba6). Also add tests for this new behaviour (PR #199, ef5bac63580d171dd7f68da6c4ec7279dcd400b5, 3aa8e7de4b847924afa350a1fc4a53a7f8fa86e1, d454e5a3468d765247ed4827e708b8576e54f87c, 66ad1272148e3d98f9508ff0e83180d967b6abaa)

Added
Add a parameter editor.definition to the function add.vertex.attribute.artifact.editor.count which can be used to define, if author or committer or both count as editors when computing the attribute values. (#92, ff1e147ba563b2d71f8228afd49492a315a5ad48)
Add the possibility to filter out patchstack mails from the mails of the ProjectData. The option can be toggled using the newly added configuration option mails.filter.patchstack.mails. (1608e28ca36610c58d2a5447d12ee2052c6eb976, a932c8cdaa6fe5149c798bc09d9e421ba679c48d)

Be sure to update Git remotes and submodules to the new URL!
Added
Add the constants UNTRACKED.FILE, UNTRACKED.FILE.EMPTY.ARTIFACT, and UNTRACKED.FILE.EMPTY.ARTIFACT.TYPE: Commits that do not change any artifact are considered to be carried out on a meta-file called <untracked.file>. The constant UNTRACKED.FILE is added to hold the string constant. Analogously, the constants UNTRACKED.FILE.EMPTY.ARTIFACT (currently, "") and UNTRACKED.FILE.EMPTY.ARTIFACT.TYPE (currently, "") hold the constants for any artifacts and their corresponding types, respectively, “changed” in untracked files. (11428d9847fd44f982cd094a3248bd13fb6b7b58, 5ea65b9ac5a22967de87d7fd4ac66b0bc8e07238, dde0dd7c6b36b49aa2b6c91395be8ea6e0cd7969, 2284bbec55e091a4135dc029906ba12446b9f0ad)
Add the public method ProjectData$get.commits.filtered.uncached: The method allows for external filtering of the commits by specifying if untracked files and/or the base artifact should be filtered (this method does not take advantage of caching, whereas the method ProjectData$get.commits.filtered does) (11428d9847fd44f982cd094a3248bd13fb6b7b58)
Add the parameters commits.filter.base.artifact and commits.filter.untracked.files to the ProjectConf: In addition to the ProjectConf parameter commits.filter.base.artifact (previously called artifact.filter.base), which configured whether the base artifact should be included in the get.commits.filtered method, there is now a similar parameter called commits.filter.untracked.files doing the same thing for untracked files (11428d9847fd44f982cd094a3248bd13fb6b7b58, 466d8eb8e7f39e43985d825636af85ddfe54b13a)
Add parameter edges.for.base.artifacts to NetworkConf : In author networks, edges do not get constructed anymore between authors for solely modifying untracked files. For authors involved in changing the base artifact, it can be configured whether edges should be created or not using the new NetworkConf parameter edges.for.base.artifacts (c60c2f6e44b6f34cccb2714eccc7674158c83dde, 466d8eb8e7f39e43985d825636af85ddfe54b13a)

Add helper function create.empty.data.frame: The function returns empty data.frames (0 rows) with correct columns and, if specified, all the correct data types. In the future, functions, that return data in data.frames, should always return data.frames of the same shape (regarding columns and data types) – especially when they are empty – because this makes later case distinctions easier or unnecessary (67a4fbe4f244b4b6047c2c2be7682d7f9085e9eb, 351364751b3fc286c66b99fe1fa3f52150f67311)
For the most common types of data.frames (data.frames of commits, mails, issues, and authors) four more utility methods are added, namely create.empty.authors.list, create.empty.commits.list, create.empty.issues.list, create.empty.mails.list, create.empty.synchronicity.list, create.empty.pasta.list as well as corresponding constants holding columns and associated data types for all these empty data.frames (5f0f52936b4433f64fd9b1c9b2571eb26f66395f, 523daef8cf4642a2360396b11f0d74bce565b0f0, f8e021db955d65ff76b1c359706a188c9fef8c62, 351364751b3fc286c66b99fe1fa3f52150f67311, 2f4e6f0657d26dbf84f093ff77b8d43993a69ddc, cd3e34a369435392f9be082df05f9fc504b56239)

Add the parameter restrict.classification.to.authors to the functions get.author.class.by.type, get.author.class.overview, get.author.class.network.degree, get.author.class.network.eigen, get.author.class.network.hierarchy, get.author.class.commit.count and get.author.class.loc.count. The parameter allows to perform classifications on a limited group of authors whose names are specified in this parameter. (2492dd0de5909c41031541ffb365eee40a342b65, #148)
Add test cases for util-core-peripheral.R by adding the new file test-core-peripheral.R along with test cases (2627d6c9aaa4b066cf3043f9cf167fb470bdec6c)
Add project-configuration parameter issues.from.source to choose if only issues from JIRA, only issues from GitHub, or all issues shall be read in (PR #159, d677949bedc3567b02cc7a1f3daffa0a785aa7a8, a3e71326d8deb861fcc4434c580e12570f7f8fa0, ea2618134efbfd8159ea49bd6fd21f4d11f3faeb). Therefore two test cases, one that reads in only JIRA issues and one that reads in only GitHub issues, are added to the issue read test (65b1acd7895b5330fab1d53d7bd27ab5dbd25192, 2d897cbb38853b20e1adba88f617908033142aef)

Therefore, the test issue data and all related tests are updated (39971eea6d51793c88a35c4e604bc5e3a13bb123, 0ec6c6c3243e79fce30f8c9c39dc3c4bee2dee7b, 6a9f4ad89f5b9d6d4b19c837006a429637b22c04, fda000fe6208760f18138e65feca3b6e8ff553b2, 351364751b3fc286c66b99fe1fa3f52150f67311)
Rename ProjectConf parameter artifact.filter.base to commits.filter.base.artifact (PR #149, 466d8eb8e7f39e43985d825636af85ddfe54b13a)
The constant BASE.ARTIFACTS is extended by adding untracked files (i.e. the new meta-file UNTRACKED.FILE), which is now considered to be a new base artifact in the case of file-level analyses. This implies, that, in case of file-level analyses, the base artifact and the untracked files fall together, while in feature-level and function-level analyses they are treated differently (d11d0fb585397fdb3a2641484248f74752db9331)
Filtering by artifact kind (e.g. filtering out either "Feature" or "FeatureExpression") is now being done in the method ProjectData$get.commits instead of the method ProjectData$get.commits.filtered (894c9a5c181fef14dcb71fa23699bebbcbcd2b4f)
Remove get.commits.filtered.empty and corresponding filter.commits.empty method, the functionality is now included into the methods get.commits.filtered and filter.commits respectively (11428d9847fd44f982cd094a3248bd13fb6b7b58)
