Does GitHub traffic include yourself?
Yes, the numbers include everyone’s views including repository owners and contributors.
Does GitHub show who viewed?
If your project is hosted on GitHub, you can view how many people land on your project and where they come from. From your project’s page, click “Insights”, then “Traffic”. Total page views: Tells you how many times your project was viewed. Total unique visitors: Tells you how many people viewed your project.
What does unique visitor mean on GitHub?
Unique visitors refers to the number of individual users who have visited your repository and these are only counted once, regardless of how many times they visit the repo. Cloners refers to people to have cloned or downloaded a copy of your code from GitHub.
Can you see who clones your repo?
Can the owner of the repo see when someone clones it? No, they cannot. If I go to one of your repositories and clone it to my local hard drive, the owner will not be able to view that activity.
Are GitHub insights accurate?
It seems to me that GitHub analytics is not very accurate. I have some repositories with 1-3 visits in 14 days, and one that gets 5-20 visitors a day. Even for repositories that get little to no outside traffic, I might visit them a few times a week and still, analytics says 0 visits for those days.
What is a git clone?
git clone is a Git command line utility which is used to target an existing repository and create a clone, or copy of the target repository. Using shallow options to partially clone repositories. Git URL syntax and supported protocols.
Can git clones be tracked?
Clones a repository into a newly created directory, creates remote-tracking branches for each branch in the cloned repository (visible using git branch –remotes ), and creates and checks out an initial branch that is forked from the cloned repository’s currently active branch.
Is there another way to get GitHub clone stats?
There used to be a “Clones” sub-tab in the “Stats & Graphs” tab of GitHub (for example https://github.com/TeamMentor/TeamMentor-Documentation/graphs/impact) but that is gone. Is there another way to get these stats? It would be great if we could get Gauges to show up Git clone, pushes, pulls, GitHub page views, etc.
Where to find Git explain clones in traffic tab?
In a recent question I made, one of the answers pointed to another answer in another question where a way to explore the forks and clones of a public Github repo was shared. I went ahead and did that with my own public repo and came up with this information in the Git clones section under the Traffic tab in the Graphs section:
Why does the GitHub traffic graph include your own views?
It’s very minor, but I’m genuinely curious if the views I’m getting is myself navigating through the source, or if I have people that are actually browsing through my source. In specific, the line that shows “Views”, not “Unique visitors” because unique visitors will obviously mean new people browsing the repository.
