Avoid
Avoid: no human commits in a year, and most questions go unanswered.
Why
- No human commits since July 2025, and only 0 of 30 recent issues got a maintainer reply. (source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4)
- One person wrote 79% 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
CompleteMostly organic, confidence high
Bursts
- May 8, 2014 to Jun 9, 2014: about 3.2k more stars than usual, peak 712 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a Hacker News post.
- Nov 3, 2014 to Nov 3, 2014: about 47 more stars than usual, peak 50 in one day, a spike that tapers off. No outside explanation found, so this burst is unexplained.
- Oct 25, 2015 to Nov 4, 2015: about 1k more stars than usual, peak 323 in one day, a spike that tapers off. No outside explanation found, so this burst is unexplained.
- Sep 6, 2016 to Sep 21, 2016: about 2.3k more stars than usual, peak 536 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a Hacker News post, a jump in forks.
- Jun 8, 2017 to Jun 9, 2017: about 62 more stars than usual, peak 45 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Apr 27, 2023 to Apr 29, 2023: about 165 more stars than usual, peak 115 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
- Feb 1, 2024 to Feb 4, 2024: about 116 more stars than usual, peak 67 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Apr 16, 2024 to Apr 30, 2024: about 2.1k more stars than usual, peak 384 in one day, a shape we can't classify. Outside explanation: a Hacker News post, a jump in forks, a new release.
- 1 stars on a repo created before February 2013 have no date, so they aren't in the chart.
- The star history was reset at some point, so earlier stars aren't counted.
- 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.
- Some star bursts have no matching forks, issues, releases, or launch coverage.
- Anyone can buy stars for any repo, so this describes the star history only.
- 1 stars on the creation day are undated (before 2013-02-10) and are not counted.
- The star history has a zero run of 26 weeks or more, so the analysis starts after it.
