I am not sure how Julia Observer queries the Github API, but I have a feel that is not capturing 2018. The Github API gives you top 100 ever users by commits by week (per repo). I have the data from a month ago I used for a paper, but some users are no longer that active this year.

These are cumulative commits. Taken by summing all the activities stored in julia observer’s db. So it only indirectly uses the github API for this case?

Can you post your paper? Would be interesting to compare the two lists
