I copied about 19,000 git repositories into a full-text solr index. Because commits are tied to email addresses this provides interesting insight into corporate open source contributions. The search front-end I added lets you search for programmers or companies, grouped by the number of commits.
For example, searching for Linux returns the following results:
| linux-foundation | ……………. |
| gmail | ………….. |
| redhat | …….. |
| suse | ……. |
Note that “gmail” indicates the use of @gmail.com addresses, so it’s non-company result. Searching for Android returns:
| ………………………………………………………….. | |
| android | …………………. |
| gmail | ….. |
| elte | … |
| motorola | .. |
| josefson | .. |
| ziplinegames | .. |
| suse | .. |
| mosabuam | .. |
| .. | |
| davemloft | .. |
| linux-foundation | .. |
| sonyericsson | .. |
