Examine a GH user's profile, and help quickly decide how much to invest in their contributions.
Project description
gh-profiler
Like many, I've gotten waves of open source contributions where many of the new issues and PRs aren't worth engaging with. But it takes me a bit of time to sort through each of them.
People like to say that code should "speak for itself", but I've found that looking at a GitHub user's profile has been more helpful in making a quick determination about how much time to invest in the issue or PR. I typically look at a few quick things:
- Has the person made an unusually high number of PRs lately?
- Have a significant portion of these PRs been closed without merging?
- Have they opened an excessive number of issues?
- How old is the account?
- Is there any meaningful information on their profile?
I don't make a final decision about PRs and issues based on the answers to these questions, but many times I see enough red flags here that I have a good idea not to spend much time evaluating the contribution. (I'm mostly talking about PRs and issues where there's been no prior discussion, and there's a lot of text or changes in the PR/issue to review if I'm going to take it seriously.)
The goal of this project is to get a quick snapshot of this kind of information, without having to do a bunch of clicking on GitHub. The output is a summary of what's found, with a quick visual cue as to which factors support investing time in the PR/issue, and which factors suggest it's better off being closed and ignored. I have no interest in calculating some kind of trust score, or any other single number.
