Nothing I've done here counts the number of affected files, so not necessarily. But I'll freely admit that the metrics used here — changesets and changed lines — are awful. I'd sure like to find something better if anybody has any good ideas.

Maybe something based on tokens using cregit?

As far as I've been able to tell, the results that come out of cregit closely match the (simpler) "by lines" metric.

Probably I didn't put it clear, I meant independent "modules / drivers" under "files", and statistics here is "by changesets".

See the last name in the list, here. While I appreciate the work done by Arvind, it's still a mechanical routine which can be easily scripted (coccinelle, sed, etc).
