Abstract
Automatically identifying context-specific repeated transformations (such as repeated edit tasks) that are based on observation of the developer drafting or modifying code. As the developer modifies the code, the code passes through a series of states, one after the other. The computing system observes the series of states of the code. It is based on this observation that the computing system identifies repeated transformations of the code for potentially offering to continue performing the repeated transformations for the user. This alleviates the developer from having to manually perform the remainder of the repeated transformations.
