Stars

Organic, confidence high

Bursts

• Jan 22, 2014 to Jan 23, 2014: about 53 more stars than usual, peak 46 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.

• 1.6k stars on a repo created before February 2013 have no date, so they aren't in the chart.

Anyone can buy stars for any repo; bursts alone don't prove the owner did.

• The star history looks organic.
• 1554 stars on the creation day are undated (before 2013-02-10) and are not counted.
