To get closer to an apples-to-apples comparison, it'd be necessary to know whether the commit counts in each case include all development branches for all development groups. By design, git-based development can be highly distributed. Also, even if we normalized both cases for 'code files only' and/or 'kernel code only', there could still be architectural, code style, and development process differences that lead to different metrics for each project.
