> As of 2026-08-26 (commit b28750b822dc), emacs-mirror/emacs contains 2,924,491 total lines: 2,048,677 code, 585,428 comments, 290,386 blank, across 2,704 files in 30 languages (top: Emacs Lisp 64.3%). Counted with tokei via OctoCounts.

OctoCounts produced this report by resolving emacs-mirror/emacs to commit b28750b822dc, downloading the repository source archive, and counting every source file with tokei, the open-source line counter written in Rust. The table below breaks the count down by programming language into files, total lines, code lines, comment lines, and blank lines, so the figures can be compared across languages and projects. Results are cached by commit, tokei version, and analysis options, so counting the same revision again reproduces exactly these numbers.
