| title | Code Change Metrics |
|---|
The Code Change engineering metric quantifies the team’s weekly development activity by measuring the total number of lines of code added, modified, or deleted across our repositories.
- Source: Computed from commit diffs in our Git version-control system, excluding merge commits and auto-generated files.
- Aggregation: Grouped by ISO week (Monday–Sunday).
- Purpose:
- Tracks engineering velocity and throughput over time.
- Highlights spikes (e.g., major feature work or refactors) and troughs (e.g., stabilization periods, planning, or holidays).
- Helps correlate process changes (code freezes, new tooling) with fluctuations in developer output.
