Ask HN: How do you objectively measure productivity from a Git Repo?

1 points by hvaoc 5y ago ↗ HN

I know measuring productivity from a Git Repo doesn’t give the full picture in a typical work environment.

But in a short term projects, say a month where lot of coding is expected. How do you objectively measure how well one has contributed just using Git Repo?

Also how do you rate a team members contribution subjectively? Like problem solver, team player rating between 1 to 5. Any other better way to do this?

Wonder if line years (capped at 1 year per line) per years worked would be better than other metrics. Credit is given to those who frequently commit changes that last. This could least to a culture of changing lines just for easy credit though; like any metric it becomes flawed once it is a goal.
