Codespeed 0.8 - Released!

Last week Miquel finished merging some code and fixing some stuff and released Codespeed 0.8!

Some changes on this release are:
- Branch support (for now, only working on the Comparison view)
- VC integration for github
- Command line client to post results via HTTP
- New documentation explaining Codespeed views and concepts

The objective of the branch support is to allow comparing feature branches then get merged back into the master.

If you are using Codespeed 0.7 and wants to use 0.8, please check this link

Error bars on Codespeed

We are trying to use error bars on Codespeed to get a more confident and useful information on plots.

Playing with jqPlot1.0 examples, I got an initial idea to create a plot with error bars, which was a bar chart with vertical lines based on standard deviation. The following image shows it:



But the idea was to use the error bars on Timeline view. So, I changed the plot to a line chart, and got:




Now I need to use this on Codespeed. In fact, I did it, but it's still not fine because of performance problems. I hope to finish it still this weekend.
