Why it ranks here
Health score explained
Gerrit scores 67/100, #18 of 45 in Software Development - Project Management: 1,046 commits in the last 90 days earn 35.0 of 35 points, the absence of a tagged release forfeits all 25 release points, 1,236 stars add 12.4 of 20, an active, unarchived repository keeps 10 and Docker support adds the final 10. That places it in the slowing band (40 to 69). The biggest shortfall is release recency, worth 25.0 more points.
