Bug Description

The FOSS server https://fossies.org - supporting also the OpenStack projects (https://fossies.org/linux/misc/openstack/) incl. Nova (https://fossies.org/nova/) - offers among others a feature named "Source code misspelling reports" (https://fossies.org/features.html#codespell). Such reports are normally only generated on request, but as Fossies administrator I have created for testing purposes such a "codespell" (https://github.com/codespell-project/codespell) based analysis for the Nova Git "master" version:

 https://fossies.org/linux/test/nova-master.tar.gz/codespell.html

That version independent URL hopefully always redirects to the report for the latest "master" version identified by the short Git commit ID and a year-month-day string (YYMMDD) representing the according git pull date (mostly = commit date). The data are residing within a special restricted "test" folder that isn't really integrated into the standard Fossies services and should also not be accessible to search engines. The report should be available at least for some weeks and is continuously updated (currently with a half-hourly refresh rate).

Although after a first review some obviously wrong matches ("False Positives") are already filtered out (ignored) please inform me if you find more of them so that I can exclude them if applicable.

By the way, while checking the word "als" (I'm still unsure) I found a by "codespell" not detected probable misspelling "QuicAssist" (instead of "QuickAssist"): https://fossies.org/linux/test/nova-master.tar.gz/nova-master/nova/tests/unit/test_hacking.py?M=91#l_91

Just for information there are also three supplemental pages showing
 some used "codespell" configuration details:
  https://fossies.org/linux/test/nova-master.tar.gz/codespell_conf.html
 all obvious false positives:
  https://fossies.org/linux/test/nova-master.tar.g/codespell_fps.html
 a misspelling history log:
  https://fossies.org/linux/test/nova-master.tar.gz/codespell_hist.html

Spelling corrections certainly have a low priority, but they may also contribute to the overall quality of a software project.

Changed in nova:
importance: Undecided → Low
status: New → Confirmed
