Some of these files have a huge diff, not sure if I understand why - maybe I clobbered the encoding? |

uhh... i think your script needs a bit of tweaking, this map already has creation date(s)

Yea, same with Hide n Seek. Probably anything with the created in an <if> got included?

It might be better if we also checked the last played date inside the oldest level.dat file to make sure it lines up as well. It’ll be more effort, but I know some of the commit dates for these maps are wrong |

Totally GOAT - Nice PR! |

Small suggestion on formatting to add space before comment and two inside comment

My copy of the Stratus repo only goes so far back, a more recent map dev from there would have better insight - but I believe most of the Water Drop maps were a part of an April Fools event, Some new ones may have been created when the rest were added, but I want to say the originals were made in 2018/2019. On top of that, there appears to be a few maps from the Stratus repo that were added into the CommunityMaps repo instead of the PublicMaps repo - such as Hide n Seek & Wrath Tor Rage. There could be others. Those maps would have older creation dats not reflected by the commit into this repo. |
I'm concerned this is going to be far more than anticipated. Backstreets is incorrect (should be sometime in April or May 2022) and anything else that is a competitive map migrated into this repo from |
For maps that were moved from a different repo, I think Pear's approach (reading oldest |
These were sourced from private OCN commits done after the squash. This is part one of the effort to add dates for PublicMaps, OvercastCommunity/CommunityMaps#1023
This is part two of the effort to add dates for PublicMaps, OvercastCommunity/CommunityMaps#1023
This is the (final) part three of the effort to add dates for PublicMaps, OvercastCommunity/CommunityMaps#1023
This PR adds a creation date to maps which don't have one.
I used the command
git log --follow -M level.datto get the oldest commit for each map. In order to confirm this works at all, I compared this predicted date to existing map<creation>tags.mean difference: ~125 days
median difference: 5 days
This will definitely be wrong for some maps, but seems to be pretty close for most. I have given most of these maps a cursory glance, but obviously I don't know the history of some of these maps, so hopefully someone else can look at them as well.
