Most active GitHub users (by contributions). http://twitter.com/paulmillr

Most active GitHub users (git.io/top)

The count of contributions (summary of Pull Requests, opened issues and commits) to public repos at GitHub.com from Mon, 01 Dec 2014 00:48:25 GMT till Tue, 01 Dec 2015 00:48:25 GMT.

Only first 1000 GitHub users according to the count of followers are taken. This is because of limitations of GitHub search. Sorting algo in pseudocode:

githubUsers
  .filter(user => user.followers > 508)
  .sortBy('contributions')
  .slice(0, 256)

Made with data mining of GitHub.com (raw data, script) by @paulmillr with contribs of @lifesinger. Updated once per week.
