Good morning,
I have integrated sonarqube into my gitlab pipeline for a c++ project; the analysis is done for merge requests and for the master branch, the analysis is only done in the source files folder.
I opened an MR and in this MR I only changed my pipeline files, my pipeline file is in a folder not under sonarqube analysis.
In the MR, sonarqube tells me that the code duplication will go from 1.1% to 1.0%.
The question is: how does it predict this percentage change if my MR does not impact the source code?
Your first screenshot shows 7.7k new lines. I think you should click through on that number to see what SonarQube thinks has changed. This may be about the SCM data being off.
