The top 1% of reviewers

Hello,

Last month I sent the top 1% of commit trailers [1], and people did seem to find the results useful. Now I'm doing the same for reviewers.

The reviewed-by trailer is the second most used, and according to the documentation must be expressly given.

The top reviewer of all time is Jonathan Nieder with 366 reviews (21% of all the reviews), but Taylor Blau is the top reviewer of the last year with 65 reviews (25% of the reviews of the past year).

But from there the next 10% of reviewers have much less.

To be in the top 10% of all time you need more than 33 reviews, but to be in the top 10% of last year you need 46.

To be in the top 25% all you need is more than 7 reviews, and of last year only 6.

The median reviewer has only 2 reviews

Once again the distribution follows a power law distribution where a few people do the vast majority of reviews, and most do only very few.

Also, it's worth noting that not everyone that does a review ends up with a reviewed-by trailer, so the actual reviewers are likely more.

If anyone is interested in the script let me know, but it's pretty much the same as the one for 1% of commit trailers.

Cheers.
