github-linguist command shows the correct statistics but GitHub server is not getting updated after a few days.

Hello Everyone,

I've been trying to work with github-linguist for a while and it still gives a bit of problem.

After a few days of trying to figure out different issues with the language statistics, I managed to set .githubattributes with the right commands to get the correct statistics from github-linguist command:

But in GitHub's webpage/server it's still not showing up:

This is the link to the repo I am working on: https://github.com/FeriBolour/cotton-phenotyping

I tried different solutions:

1. Waited almost a week.
2. Pushed meaningless stuff to the repo to update the server.

It's still not working. What do you suggest me t do.

You don't appear to have pushed your local changes as my analysis of a fresh clone of your repo shows:

$ github-linguist cotton-phenotyping/
92.43%  2666651    Jupyter Notebook
5.32%   153376     Python
2.25%   64884      MATLAB
$

... which matches what GitHub is reporting.

Further to this, if you add --breakdown to the command we see these Jupyter files are still being considered:

Jupyter Notebook:
Model-Development/.ipynb_checkpoints/MaskRCNN-checkpoint.ipynb
Model-Development/.ipynb_checkpoints/MaskRCNN_Detectron2_NewBaselines-checkpoint.ipynb
Model-Development/.ipynb_checkpoints/MaskRCNN_wCustomAugmentations-checkpoint.ipynb

This is because this override is not recursive:

Model-Development/* linguist-vendored

Change it to:

Model-Development/** linguist-vendored

... and you'll get:

$ github-linguist .
70.27%  153376     Python
29.73%  64884      MATLAB
