About a year ago, I wrote a post talking about the avalanche of commits coming into GitHub. That Tuesday, GitHub received 33,154 pushes containing 109,290 commits. An insane number to be sure, but where are we at a year later?
Here’s last week:
Sunday
Pushes => 40,185
Commits => 99,533Monday
Pushes => 75,496
Commits => 412,882Tuesday
Pushes => 83,922
Commits => 289,867Wednesday
Pushes => 83,406
Commits => 277,453Thursday
Pushes => 82,141
Commits => 210,362Friday
Pushes => 71,830
Commits => 187,456Saturday
Pushes => 35,405
Commits => 153,282What that means:
- GitHub’s mid-week push traffic has more than doubled in the last 12 months
- Weekends are now as busy as weekdays were last year
Sick.
