I want to use GHtorrent data in my research. I was studying the documentation and data present in the google big query and I noticed that the issue comments do not have the body attribute with their textual content.

I need the textual content of the issues in my research (title, description and comments), I read articles that use GHtorrent data and use those texts. Does the data in mySQL dumps contain the textual content of the issues?

Thanks!

I am using mySQl dumps and have the same concern. The textual content of issue comments is not available and the comment_id column does not reference any other table!

Apparently, there is no issue textual content in GhTorrent. To solve this problem, I recovered the missing data using the Github API. It is not difficult to implement an extractor, but extraction can take a while.

Hey, maybe we have something in common in our scientific research, I am interested in sharing knowledge ...
