Stars

Organic, confidence high

Bursts

• May 7, 2013 to May 8, 2013: about 31 more stars than usual, peak 25 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a Hacker News post, a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
• Jul 18, 2014 to Jul 19, 2014: about 37 more stars than usual, peak 31 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
• Dec 1, 2014 to Dec 1, 2014: about 40 more stars than usual, peak 45 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a Hacker News post, a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
• Jun 2, 2020 to Jun 4, 2020: about 182 more stars than usual, peak 143 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a Hacker News post, a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
• Jan 20, 2021 to Jan 22, 2021: about 251 more stars than usual, peak 128 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.

• 458 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.
• 458 stars on the creation day are undated (before 2013-02-10) and are not counted.
