Ask HN: Tool for tracking open-source contributions?
Has anyone seen a good tool for keeping track of employee code contributions to open source projects? We (rackspace) have hundreds of developers contributing code to all sorts of projects and I'm looking for a tool that will make it easy for our developers to self report what they contribute. If it doesn't exist we'll write one, but basically our product and legal teams want a log of this stuff for various reasons.
- troymc 16y agoOhloh may not be exactly what you want, but it's similar; you can look up a particular contributor and see where they are contributing. http://www.ohloh.net/ http://www.ohloh.net/ Here's an example person, chosen somewhat randomly: http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/meyering http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/meyering
- billboebel 16y agoThanks. Ohloh looks like what I'm looking for. Will check it out.
- rohitarondekar 16y agoEven I've been looking for a good product that does this! The only one I've found so far is http://www.ohloh.net http://www.ohloh.net As an example take a look at my contributions to Rails: http://www.ohloh.net/p/rails/contributors/146029001134 http://www.ohloh.net/p/rails/contributors/146029001134 and my profile: http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/rohitarondekar http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/rohitarondekar It does more then keep track of contributions but that's the most useful feature at ohloh at present.
