The result is based on ratio of number of commits and code additions from initial and final time ranges.
Initial time range – from 14 Aug, 2023 to 14 Nov, 2023
Final time range – from 15 May, 2024 to 14 Aug, 2024
It is basically a number of most active contributors responsible for 80% of contributions.
Bus factor tries to assess "What happens if a key member of the team is hit by a bus?". The more there are key members, the lower the risk.
The actions/runner-images repository has a bus factor of 16.
Low risk, knowledge is well distributed among the team members
Bus factor was measured on 14 Aug 2024
The actions/runner-images GitHub repository is used to define the virtual environments for GitHub Actions. This includes all the software tools that come pre-installed with GitHub's MacOS, Windows and Linux environments for running GitHub Actions.
The repository's README.md file provides details about the tools installed in the virtual environments. The file is separated into sections for each type of environment (ubuntu, windows, or macos). Each section lists the tools and utilities pre-installed on each type of runner, such as programming languages, web servers, databases, and more.
The repository also includes scripts for setting up some software, and Packer templates for creating images.
Users can open issues in the repository if they have problems or questions about the environments themselves. They can also propose changes to the environments by opening a pull request.
This repository is crucial because GitHub Actions workflows rely on these environments to operate correctly. So, this essentially allows users to understand, propose changes, or resolve issues in the environments that their workflows run in.
Please note that the validity and accuracy of this information depends on the current state of the repository, and GitHub may make changes over time.
