How to view the Contributors graph
The Cloud version has only repository graphs.
To view the project Contributors graph:
- Navigate to the repository of your choice.
- Click Graphs on the left-hand sidebar.
- Select the Contributors page in the Graphs tab.
You can track the changes made to the codebase over time in the Summary Graph and find the top contributors quickly using the Contributors cards.
Summary Graph
Summary Graph displays the number of total contributions in terms of commits, lines of code added and deleted in a project or a repository over a specific period grouped by day/week/month.
Activity Type
To choose what activity (commits, additions, or deletions) to display in the summary graph navigate to the Show menu and select one of the options from the drop-down list.
By default, all files except binaries are counted in lines of code statistics (Additions, Deletions). It is possible to exclude files and directories from statistics. Learn more
Grouping Criteria
To display contributions grouped by whether day, week, or month, click one of the Display in buttons.
Contributors List
The contributors are ordered by the value specified in the Show menu. For example, if Commits is chosen, contributors are ordered by the number of commits they made in the repository.
Here, contributors' names can be text or links. If it's text, that means that the contributor is not a Bitbucket Server and Data Center user. For Bitbucket Server and Data Center users, contributors' names are links to their Contributions graph in their user profile. The Contributions graph is available only in the paid version of the Awesome Graphs app.
Filtering the displayed data
You can filter all the information displayed in the Contributors tab by certain contributors and by the period.
Track the contributions over a certain period
To select a time span for personal contribution graphs, go to the Summary Graph, click near the start point of your time span and drag to the end point. Once selected, your time span can be adjusted by moving the selection or dragging start or end points. To deselect, click anywhere outside the selected area in the graph.
