Is Repography still open?

No. As of October 2026 Repography is closed to new users: it is no longer possible to sign in, install the GitHub app or order posters. Dashboards for existing users keep updating until 31 December 2026. See the about page for details.

Why does the output for my repo look so different from the others?

There's an enormous variety in Git repos, from a few commits by a single contributor, to hundreds of thousands of commits by thousands of contributors. We tried hard to make our designs accommodate most of this range.

Why doesn't my repo work?

Some repos are just too large for us to handle, in other cases you might have run into a bug or there was too much demand on our servers.

What data do you use from my GitHub repo to create the graphics?

The Repography app analyses your commit history, issues and contributors.

How do I stop Repography updating my dashboards?

Uninstall the Repography app from your GitHub account or organization. Your repositories and rendered dashboards are deleted when the app is uninstalled.

How often will my dashboard be updated?

Dashboards are re-rendered within an hour of activity on your repo, like pushing commits or commenting on an issue, until 31 December 2026.

How do you calculate the ranking of contributors in the "Top Contributors" dashboard?

We consider the quantity and size of commits, and also issue activity (comments, status changes etc.).

Can I embed the dashboard elsewhere than GitHub?

Yes! The embed code is in Markdown format so it's perfect for your README.md on GitHub, but it should also work fine anywhere else markdown is supported.
