Productivity analytics display information about merge requests for groups.

Use productivity analytics to identify:

• Your development velocity based on how long it takes for a merge request to merge.
• Potential causes of merge requests that take a long time to merge.
• Authors, labels, or milestones that take the longest time to merge or contain most changes.

To view merge request data for projects, use merge request analytics.

Charts

Productivity analytics display the following charts:

• Bar charts that illustrate the:
  • Number of merge requests by number of days to merge.
  • Time between commits, comments, and merge dates.
  • Number of commits, lines of code, and files changed.
• A scatterplot that illustrates the number of merge request metrics (such as number of commits per merge request) per day (merged date).
• A table that lists merge request titles, time to merge, and duration between commits, comments, and merge dates.
