I'm so angry at GitHub! They make me feel so unproductive. Somehow jealousy is always my first reaction when I see a new update from them.
Why is the traffic graph never working? I was excited to hear the graphs were updated and assumed the traffic graph would finally be working again, but no it is still "temporarily down."
d3 is pretty amazing. I think we'll see a huge jump in things built with it in the next few months.
(Careful with the link)
This page https://github.com/torvalds/linux/graphs/impact freezes FF12 on W7/x64 for several seconds, and then FF asks if to continue running the script or if to stop it. Continuing re-freezes Firefox.
I built http://gitego.com a few months back to keep track of watchers, forks, size, and issues over time. I'm glad they're enhancing the code-related graphs. Stats for those would be much harder to gather externally.
Edit: Looks like Metior was tracking code stats externally from GitHub as well http://metior.herokuapp.com/.
Anyone have any idea what they are using to build these graphs. Looks kinda like D3 but I'm not really sure.
I don't understand what Punchcard is showing... is it what day-of-the-week commits are pushed on?
GitHub used to have a graph that showed clones over time as well, but they took it out.
In general, I wish GH had more data you could pull out about your repo through the API. That would allow me to track my own metrics.
Thanks for these, do appreciate the work so far.
I was really hoping for a graph of commits as well though, ala git log --graph . I know the network graph is intended for this, but it fails pretty badly.
It looks like only commits on branch 'master' are reflected in these graphs.
Thank you Github! I was just hoping that the graphs would get updated. This gives me better oversight into who/what/where/when. Although perhaps a bug - my punch card graph is empty.
I've been hoping that they would add some more graphs. Looking at either how much impact (or lack of) I made in the last week is one of the tools that I use to keep to myself motivated
This is a huge improvement - especially the Contributors chart is plain awesome and they finally load fast. On the other hand I still don't see any sense in the Punchcard.
The new graphs are nice but this is a major step backwards. Page Views, Downloads are no longer there. This was very useful information.
GitHub Charts or GitHub Plots.
How do they have d3 charts in canvas?
Are you going to open source the graphs? I have a project they would be perfect for!
I just want a newsfeed that isn't useless =\. These graphs are nice, but there seems to be higher priority things to be fixing.
This is nice and all, but PLEASE fix the network graph! It's the most important one and it's the most useless at the moment.
