I'm currently trying to understand the analysis mode changes in SonarQube 5.2. Changing the full mode to publish is simple enough, but removing the incremental mode and adding the issues mode that really throws me.
It was previously assumed that incremental mode can be used to view problems only in files that have been changed, while the preview mode will analyze the entire project. Does this still have a problem mode?
My project is huge (1-3 hours for analysis from scratch), so the ability to simply analyze gradually for things like pre-commit checks or Github integration is pretty much required for the tool to be used by our developers.
Any clarification that people can provide will be appreciated.
