Public GitHub commits attributed to Devin

Devin's work is visible through its integration; many commits inside its PRs land under the developer, so the pull-request count is the better task measure.

Last full week (ending 2026-10-04): 19,493 signed commits (+12.3% week over week), exact count.

Distinct users: 1,352 humans opened the 12,600 most recently sampled PRs, about 9.3 PRs per person.

Merge rate: 66.6% of its pull requests get merged (44,839 of 67,353 over 8 settled weeks, 2026-08-03 to 2026-09-27). The window ends about ten days back so recently-opened PRs have had time to merge.

GitHub review activity: 8.2% of its merged PRs had at least one GitHub review record before merging; the other 91.8% had none. This is a broad weekly signal and can include bot reviews; the human-review read below comes from the enriched PR sample.

In significant repos (company-owned or 10+ stars), 51.6% of its merged PRs got a human review. Across all sampled repos, the rate is 18.3%. Human review means a non-author, non-bot GitHub reviewer in the PR-lifecycle sample.

Median time to merge: 23 min. The unreviewed median is 0.33h. The human-reviewed median is 1.82h. From a 120-PR sample merged 2026-07-30 to 2026-08-28.

Test-inclusion: 45.8% of its sampled merged PRs touch a test file. This is a rough read on production readiness. 1 large PRs hit GitHub's 100-file path read cap, so treat this as a floor.

Commits per PR: 1 over the last 8 weeks. Both counts come from the same visible workflow, so this is a clean measure of how many commits make up one delegated task.

Flow share: 0.5% of the 1999 most recent public PRs sampled (10 PRs, 2 windows, last 2026-09-27).

Task lens: 161K agent-opened PRs. Devin's task unit is the pull request; private enterprise repositories are excluded.
