If you'd like approximate activity levels by committer, try something like: % cd /cvs/FreeBSD/CVSROOT-src/commitlogs # choose repository % gzip -dcfq * | awk ' /^[a-z][a-z]*/ { count[$1]++ } \ END { for (c in count) { print count[c], c } } ' | \ sort -nr | less ... 7193 jkh 6864 peter 6682 phk 6031 obrien 5898 ru 5261 bde 4355 ache 3737 imp 2951 brian 2867 jhb 2765 des 2399 rwatson ... [snip] ... For 'recent' activity levels, replace the '*' with a suitable set of commit logs. I'd also like to point out that most of the changes to the project come from outside of the group of 'committers' (I remember a figure of 75% doing the rounds at one point). The number of FreeBSD 'contributors' exceeds the number of committers by a large margin. -- FreeBSD Volunteer, http://people.freebsd.org/~jkoshy
