One thing I noticed is that Homebrew has an extremely high number. But I suspect this is because it has a very large number of somewhat silo'd files. That is, people work on package formulas for projects that interest them, but what you really care about for the health of the project is who is working on the base system. Maybe those formula authors could step up, or maybe not, but I'm not sure that is reflected in this analysis. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
