What tools do you use? I was looking into FishEye, but it's expensive. Any open source or free tools that you might recommend?

Edit: I think I missed asking something else. I would also want to see how much code is changed in the repository, etc.

I'll look into Sonar and SourceMonitor. Thanks guys!

For code metrics, I highly recommend Sonar.

I haven't tried integrating it with Subversion, but since it works as a Maven plug-in, I suppose you can use it with any continuous integration engine that supports Maven. Or, you might be able to get away with running it in a Subversion post-commit hook.

Better yet, take a look at the Sonar documentation below, they even talk about seamless integration with Hudson, the open-source CI engine:

Response to edit: Sonar maintains a history of your codebase metrics, including LOC and so on, which you can view in a 'timeline' letting you visualize codebase growth and trends.

If you want a simple, free tool for doing code metrics like cyclomatic complexity, you can use SourceMonitor.
