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.

What are you rewriting in rust?
But I'd suggest joining an existing project instead. This week in Rust has a call for participation section each week. There are also some exciting rewrites like arti, gitoxide, fish, and a steady stream of projects announced in this sub.
- [Gitoxide in April] A first step towards `gix status` and `.gitattributes` matching
- [Gitoxide in March]: `cargo` shallow clones PR and `gitoxide` in `cargo` nightly
-
What’s an actual use case for Rust
There's a re-implementation of git called gitoxide
- [Gitoxide in February]: `git-repository` is now `gix`, and statically known git-config keys

The Git source code audit, viewed as a Rust programmer
Gitoxide is useful in other Rust programs that need git integration, e.g. Cargo[1] or Helix[2].
I don't know how far he intends to take it, but the author of gitoxide (which is just a library, like libgit2) uses it to power a git CLI called gix. As of October it looks like it can do fetches and clones: https://github.com/Byron/gitoxide/discussions/623 .
Since the git CLI is subcommand-based, it wouldn't be too hard to provide replacements for individual git subcommands one at a time.
It'll be interesting to see where the gitoxide[1] project goes, being a rust implementation of git

The most creative, funny, clever, ridiculous, ... library names!
gitoxide, because, well, everything around rust is kind-of low-hanging fruit of puns to make

What’s everyone working on this week (1/2023)?
After having used the gitoxide lib in bacon last week so that ignored files don't trigger jobs on change, I'll try to see whether I can replace git2 with gitoxide in a few other applications. Gitoxide lib is still a little rough in parts but I really like when I can replace a native lib with a pure Rust one.
