There (were) two documents related to "repo reports" in SimRel part of the wiki. Those should be (and have been) moved to "CBI" wiki space. https://wiki.eclipse.org/CBI/p2repoAnalyzers/Repo_Reports_FAQ and https://wiki.eclipse.org/CBI/p2repoAnalyzers/Repo_Reports_Running_Locally I have updated them so inaccuracies were removed or changed, but some more things should be documented. One is the "referenceRepo" parameter. Another thing to document is "the build". Just to give location and an overview, if nothing else. https://hudson.eclipse.org/cbi/view/p2RepoRelated/job/cbi.p2repo.analyzers.build/ I should also add pointers to current scripts where the "product" or "repository" is used. This is partially related to bug 506037.
FYI, I have updated the "categories" so that CBI category shows these two documents, as well as the aggregator manual. See https://wiki.eclipse.org/Category:CBI
I have update the two documents as much as I can, for now. Improvements always welcome. :) https://wiki.eclipse.org/CBI/p2repoAnalyzers/Repo_Reports_FAQ https://wiki.eclipse.org/CBI/p2repoAnalyzers/Repo_Reports_Running_Locally As these documents have evolved, I suspect they could be combined. Each is fairly short. The "FAQ", long ago, contained the information that is now in the "main page" itself, on the meaning of each tests (e.g. see http://download.eclipse.org/releases/neon/201610111000/buildInfo/reporeports/ )
I did decide to combine the "run locally" document into the main document. Plus, I removed the word "FAQ" from the main document, since it really was not a FAQ. So, final URL is https://wiki.eclipse.org/CBI/p2repoAnalyzers/Repo_Reports Plus, made other modifications to refer to CBI list and bugzilla, instead of cross-project. I am also going to remove the version of the document that exists in the Git repo. It would not be that helpful to have in two locations and too much effort to maintain two copies.
Fred, I added you to CC partially so you will be more aware of this document in https://wiki.eclipse.org/Category:CBI But also to ask if you wanted to "give it a try" -- if nothing else simply from your workspace, on some simple repository, so you can help proof read the document and make sure that it "makes sense" to someone reading it for the first time (well, maybe you already read the old one, but, you know what I mean :)
I just remembered to add a short paragraph that at least points to the "Hudson build" for these report packages.
