Averaged over the hourly files loaded for each day — raw daily sums would step every time the ingest finishes a pass

Activity by event type

Each panel has its own scale — PushEvent is ~90% of all events and would otherwise flatten the rest to zero · plotted per loaded hour, totals are absolute

Heads up — the archive stopped capturing most of this. Star events fell from ~123.6K/day at the start of this window to ~2.3K/day at the end, a 98% drop, while pushes rose. This is a gap in GH Archive, not a change in GitHub: sampled live, GitHub's public events API still returns stars, pull requests and issues at 100×+ the rate the archive recorded for the same hour. Rankings on those metrics are only meaningful earlier in the window — the Rising repos page lets you move the ranking date accordingly. Data health has the per-type measurements and how the archive was ruled out as the cause.
