Looking at push activity is so much better than individual commits.
Pushes are authenticated, unlike commit author identity. Looking at pushes you can more easily verify security practices, like requiring reviews (see slsa.dev/spec/v1.0/future-di…).
Excited to see where this goes!
It's now easier to understand changes to your repositories with the new activity view. This new activity view gives you the ability to self-serve insights to your favorite repository and all of its changes.
