Caution
Caution: one person wrote most of the recent commits.
Why
- One person wrote 94% of human commits in the last year, so the project depends on them continuing. (source 1, source 2)
What would change this
- A second person takes a substantial share of commits.
- Partly checked: maintenance (Commit counts are estimated: the commit sample stops before the window start, so GitHub's totals were scaled by the sampled bot share.; Authors in the last 90 days are counted from the sampled commits only.)

Stars
CompleteOrganic, confidence high
Bursts
- Oct 9, 2015 to Oct 11, 2015: about 135 more stars than usual, peak 56 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
- Jan 19, 2023 to Jan 19, 2023: about 68 more stars than usual, peak 76 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.
- Feb 2, 2024 to Feb 4, 2024: about 71 more stars than usual, peak 42 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- 384 stars on a repo created before February 2013 have no date, so they aren't in the chart.
- 38 stars GitHub has since removed (tracked since Oct 13, 2026).
Anyone can buy stars for any repo; bursts alone don't prove the owner did.
- The star history looks organic.
- 384 stars on the creation day are undated (before 2013-02-10) and are not counted.
