PQC-Corpus links post-quantum histories from 179 GitHub repositories
Original title: PQC-Corpus: A Dataset of Linked Development Histories for Post-Quantum Cryptography
In samples, about seven in ten commits and two in three issues were labeled post-quantum related.
PQC-Corpus connects issues, closing pull requests, commits, full patches, comments, and reviews from 179 public GitHub repositories. It covers cryptographic libraries and general-purpose projects adapting to post-quantum cryptography. The authors reconstructed 23 pull-request commit lists truncated at 250 entries and checked file integrity, schemas, and links. They provide full and filtered views, removal ledgers, and a public collector.
Unconfirmed: PQC-related labels apply to sampled commits and issues, not every record in the corpus.
- Two annotators reported kappa of 0.86 for commits and 0.93 for issues.
- A patch-free view supports inspection before patches are downloaded.
- Filtering reduces issue-to-commit links, and removal ledgers quantify that loss.
- Traversal scripts follow issues through to code changes.

1 min read at arxiv.orgAs post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards evolve, developers must adapt implementations, tests, and protocols. Studying this work requires connecting code changes to problem reports and developer reviews. We present PQC-Corpus, a dataset of linked development histories from 179 public GitHub repositories, spanning cryptographic libraries and general-purpose projects.
