What is "Commits"?
The Commits metric in GitHub is a count of the number of changes made to a repository. Every time a user pushes changes to a branch or creates a new commit, it increments this metric. It can also show the frequency of commits over time, highlighting periods of activity or inactivity. Having a high number of commits is often seen as a positive sign of a healthy and active project, while low numbers may indicate a lack of progress or engagement.
Example: Commits metric can be used to evaluate the productivity and activity level of individual developers working on a project. For example, it can help identify the top contributors and provide insight into the frequency and consistency of their code contributions.
