Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Mutation Driven Testing: When TDD Just Isn’t Good Enough
re: absence of C++ tools
Have you looked at Mull[1] or Dextool[2]?

Weird things I learned while writing an x86 emulator
> you've written an an ARM disassembler
Here's my AArch64 disassembler work in progress:
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/blob/master/compiler/src/dmd/ba...
I add to it in tandem with writing the code generator. It helps flush out bugs in both by doing this. I.e. generate the instruction, the disassemble it and compare with what I thought it should be.
It's quite a bit more complicated than the corresponding x86 disassembler:

My favourite Git commit (2019)
Not completely on topic (if you read TFA) but my favorite Git commit is by compiler badass and HN frequenter, where he checks in an entire C compiler to the D language repo:

The C Bounded Model Checker: Criminally Underused
A new generated code alone is 4000 lines long [1]. The actual code added is just 2000 lines, and some are used to pay debts, I mean, to make a proper code generator (which can be alternatively written in a simpler scripting langauge). In any case it is never comparable to the entier C parser proper.
