Fixes #488

Root cause

Both symptoms in #488 trace to a single bug: the sample grid spanned [start_time, now] rather than the range the repository's commits actually cover.

With --since all, parse_since_to_datetime returns the Unix epoch. On the issue's repro repo (200 commits, 2023-01-06 → 2025-09-27, 995 days) that stretched the grid over 56.6 years. Confirmed empirically rather than inferred — --samples 100 produced points spaced exactly 209 days apart, which is (1970-01-01 → 2026-08-19) / 99.

The consequences compound:

  • Only ~5 of the 100 grid points landed inside the repo's history.
  • Every grid point past the last commit resolved to that same commit and was collapsed by the existing dedup, contributing one point total.
  • A final point dated today was appended unconditionally from analyze_current (the working tree), producing a data point at a date where no commit exists and stretching the reported slope across a span longer than the repo covers.

Fix

  • trend_window() — bounds the window below by max(since, first commit) and above by the last commit rather than now. A repo whose history has gone quiet no longer gets a trailing stretch of empty samples.
  • sample_times() — computes each offset from its index (total * i / (n-1)) rather than accumulating a truncated interval, so integer truncation cannot drift the final point off the window end. Period mode always includes the window end as its final point.
  • Removed the phantom "today" HEAD point and the now-unused analyze_current.

Sample-count clamping falls out of the existing dedup: when commits are sparser than the requested grid, consecutive grid points resolve to the same commit and collapse, so the result is naturally bounded by the number of distinct commits in range.

Verification

Against the repro from the issue:

--samples before after
5 1 5
10 1 10
20 2 20
50 4 50
100 7 100

Every run now spans 2023-01-06 → 2025-09-27 (first → last commit) instead of ending at the wall-clock date. --samples 500 correctly clamps to 200, the number of commits available. --since 1y clamps to the 8 commits in that window.

7 new unit tests cover the window derivation and the sample grid (exact count, even spacing, first/last on the bounds, period mode, degenerate zero-width window, empty history). Written before the implementation, per the repo's TDD requirement.

cargo test (all 2107), cargo fmt --check, and cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings all pass.

Behavior change worth noting

The trend no longer reflects uncommitted working-tree changes, because the window now ends at the last commit. This is what #488 asks for, but it is a real change for score trend run on a dirty tree — the last point is now the last commit's tree rather than the working directory. It also removes an inconsistency, since every other point was already analyzed from a git tree rather than the filesystem.

Unrelated drive-by

The report sidebar's colored status dots were touching their link text — .nav-link was flex items-center with no gap. Added gap-2 to assets/report/input.css and recompiled src/report/report.css via bun run build.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Navigation links now provide consistent spacing between icons and other content.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Trend reports now use the actual commit history window, avoiding misleading future- or today-dated points.
    • Sampling now correctly handles start dates, empty histories, exact sample counts, intervals, and endpoints.
    • Trend calculations remain accurate for short or degenerate time windows.

`score trend --samples N` returned roughly N/14 points instead of N, and
the final point was dated today rather than the last commit.

Both symptoms had one cause: the sample grid spanned [start_time, now].
With `--since all`, `parse_since_to_datetime` returns the Unix epoch, so
on a repo covering 995 days the grid stretched over 56.6 years. Only a
handful of grid points landed on real commits; every point past the last
commit deduped down to one, and a final point dated today was appended
unconditionally from the working tree.

Sample over the span the repository actually covers instead:

- `trend_window()` bounds the window below by max(since, first commit)
  and above by the last commit rather than `now`.
- `sample_times()` computes each offset from its index rather than
  accumulating an interval, so integer truncation cannot drift the final
  point away from the window end.
- Drop the phantom "today" point and the now-unused `analyze_current`.

Note: the trend no longer reflects uncommitted working-tree changes,
since the window now ends at the last commit.

Also add the missing gap between the report sidebar's status dots and
their link text -- `.nav-link` was `flex items-center` with no `gap`.

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits within each organization.

For paid Pro and Pro+ reviews, CodeRabbit uses a developer's included PR review attempts over the past 7 days to set the current hourly allowance. At typical activity levels, the full plan allowance applies. Higher sustained activity can lower the allowance until earlier attempts leave the 7-day window.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds flex spacing to navigation links and changes trend sampling to use the repository’s commit-bounded window. It adds exact-count and period-based sampling, removes the current-time fallback point, and expands trend tests.

Changes

Trend sampling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Commit-bounded trend sampling
src/score/trend.rs
analyze_trend bounds sampling by repository commits, since, and the current time. sample_times supports exact counts and period endpoints. Tests cover empty, bounded, evenly spaced, period-based, and degenerate windows.

Navigation spacing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Navigation link gap
assets/report/input.css, src/report/report.css
.nav-link now applies a flex gap in both the source and generated stylesheets.

A single requested sample is a snapshot of the latest state, not a
degenerate two-point trend. Return the window end rather than forcing a
second point at the window start.
