Purpose

Commits number by day shows a number of individual commits in a project code base per selected GIT repository (branch) for the last 180 days - by a particular author. 

How metric helps

Commits number by day might indicate diminishing commits by a single engineer or a group. As a general rule, a programmer should consistently make commits throughout his work.

How metric works

Chart overview

Chart shows a number of commits by day in a number of commits - Axis Y by day - Axis X. The chart can be viewed for a particular repository and user. 

Next to the chart name there is a link to navigate to the GIT repository ('arrow' icon) for further details.

Calculation 

Total value of commits for a pair user/repository is a number of commits made by this user into this repository on a considered day.

The depth of calculation is the last 180 days.

RAG thresholds: n/a.

Data Source

Data for the metric can be collected from GIT.
