Avoid
Avoid: no human commits in a year, and most questions go unanswered.
Why
- No human commits since January 2022, and only 0 of 14 recent issues got a maintainer reply. (source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4)
- One person wrote 91% of human commits in the last year, and no human has committed in the last 90 days. (source 1, source 2)
What would change this
- A release or merged commit from a maintainer, or replies to recent issues.
- A human commit in the last 90 days, or a second person taking a large share of commits.

Stars

Bursts
- Jul 16, 2013 to Jul 16, 2013: about 31 more stars than usual, peak 33 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Oct 16, 2019 to Oct 17, 2019: about 112 more stars than usual, peak 65 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Dec 8, 2021 to Dec 10, 2021: about 196 more stars than usual, peak 92 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
- Jan 27, 2023 to Feb 2, 2023: about 116 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.
- 2 stars on a repo created before February 2013 have no date, so they aren't in the chart.
- 3 stars GitHub has since removed (tracked since Oct 14, 2026).
Anyone can buy stars for any repo; bursts alone don't prove the owner did.
- The star history looks organic.
- 2 stars on the creation day are undated (before 2013-02-10) and are not counted.
