From df552c241e5a3ab4c80c3664aea16b38e3f06989 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Roben Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 10:30:44 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Classify XML as a data language While XML is technically a markup language, in the majority of cases it is just a serialization format for a tool (e.g., project files for IDEs) rather than hand-authored markup. As such it isn't really useful to include it in repository language statistics. A C# project doesn't really care whether Visual Studio uses XML, JSON, or some other format to serialize its project files, for example. --- lib/linguist/languages.yml | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/lib/linguist/languages.yml b/lib/linguist/languages.yml index bca601eb..0ac757f6 100644 --- a/lib/linguist/languages.yml +++ b/lib/linguist/languages.yml @@ -3165,7 +3165,7 @@ XC: ace_mode: c_cpp XML: - type: markup + type: data ace_mode: xml aliases: - rss
