For the experiment part, I am started working on it but would be interested in other people's experiences. For the figures part, I think I read somewhere there exists some statistics on Git usage for Linux kernel. Is this correct ? If true, where could I find them ? Thanks in advance for answering my (maybe pointless) questions and for producing such a nice piece of software. -- Arnaud Bailly
