原文摘要
As 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. It connects issues and closing pull requests to commits and full patches, with comments and reviews. We combine Git histories with GitHub threads, reconstruct 23 pull-request commit lists truncated at 250 entries, and check file integrity, schemas, and links. Two annotators independently assessed sampled commits and issues ($κ=0.86$ and $0.93$), labeling about seven in ten commits and two in three issues PQC-related within these samples. We provide full and filtered views with removal ledgers, and quantify how filtering reduces links from issues to commits. A patch-free view supports inspection before downloading patches, while traversal scripts follow issues to code changes. We make the dataset and collector publicly available for studies of specification changes, hybrid interoperability, cryptographic review, and migration assistance.
