Are you sure you need *.groovy linguist-detectable=true (it seems it’s already here linguist/languages.yml at master · github/linguist · GitHub)
Have you tried to mark the others as linguist-generated or linguist-documentation ? (edit: linguist-documentation didn’t work either)
Maybe gitlab has an older version of linguist than github…
I’ve noticed within the last 2-3 weeks that the language stats in some of my repos are off: files marked as linguist-generated are now being included in the stats again.
@standage Now that you mention, I remember now that it used to work before. So it must be something broken. Thank you for creating the issue. I will keep track of it.
@tcarne Yes, I don’t think I need *.groovy linguist-detectable=true, but I left it there long time ago and I assume it should not cause any issue. I haven’t tried linguist-generated or linguist-documentation yet. Still, I agree with @standage. Something may be wrong as it should work with linguist-detectable=false and it used to work before.
