Contribution Rate

WHY IT MATTERS

High-performing organizations have less bureaucracy, broader participation, and more trust and autonomy in making code changes.

HOW IT’S MEASURED

Contribution rate is the percentage of contributors that are developers creating pull requests (vs. dedicated code reviewers).

Contributors are placed into one of two categories based on their Git activity:

• Developers are Git users who created at least one pull request in the last 90 days.
• Reviewers are Git users who reviewed at least one request in the last 90 days, but did not create any PRs.
