I do think, however, that "repo no longer public" should be treated as an opt-out signal.

- Mtinie 3y agoWhich is valid, but what's the timeframe for rechecking and validating if there's been a change? I'll posit it's practically impossible to catch every single change within a reasonable timeframe to ensure that "a repo no longer public, today, within a data set collected earlier" would be excluded. I may be misunderstanding your suggestion. If so, I'm curious to learn what I missed.
- Retr0id 3y agoMy assumption is that the "my private repo was included" crowd are misremembering that their repo used to be public at some point in the distant past (~years). My suggestion would be that they re-scan before each major revision of the dataset (such as this upcoming "v2" release). This would be a relatively expensive process given the numbers involved, but so be it. (edit: I think "v2" is already released, but you get my point)
- Mtinie 3y agoI can get behind this idea. Thank you for clarifying.
