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.

Linux runtime security agent powered by eBPF
Yep, and from my experience too (made a tool that monitors network traffic with eBPF [1]) in addition to those issues there is also a sizable latency hit.

Monitor bandwidth usage with bandwhich (and build a snap package of it)
Similar to bandwhich, I recently created a snap of my own bandwidth monitor, picosnitch [1]. However I was only able to get it working with classic confinement (so it can't be published on the store) due to there being no snap interfaces for fanotify or BPF kfuncs.
I already packaged it for nearly every distro, but unfortunately most don't have dash [2] in their repos so the user needs to install it separately, and I was hoping that snap would be an easier solution for that.

What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
I created picosnitch which can do this
-
gnome-shell Runaway Bandwidth - More in Comments
If you're still having this issue, you can try picosnitch (I recently made it available in copr).
-
Help identifying which process is sending network requests
You can use picosnitch for this, I'm the developer and this is exactly the use case I had in mind when designing it (24/7 monitoring of traffic on a per executable basis, primarily in containerized environments).

Little Snitch Mini
I wrote picosnitch [1] which has the same notification and bandwidth monitoring features, however it doesn't block traffic for a couple reasons: avoiding scope creep so I can focus on more reliable detection and do things like hash every executable, which makes it harder to block traffic in a timely fashion.

System monitor that lists network usage for each process
I also wrote a program (picosnitch) which is newer than that list and has a bunch of features none of those other tools have, in case you're interested in checking it out!
-
linux security
which basically says launchpad builds the package directly from that repository, which states: This repository is an import of the Git repository at https://github.com/elesiuta/picosnitch.git.
-
Linux software list. Discussion and advice welcome!
picosnitch - monitors and hashes programs that connect to the internet, and can check them with VirusTotal.
-
What's your goto open source network & bandwidth monitors
For Linux, I created picosnitch which does exactly what you're looking for.

Look at any PR/patch series that got merged into the Git project. https://github.com/git/git/
Any random one. Because those that did not meet the minimum criteria for a well-crafted history would not have passed review.

So You Think You Know Git – Git Tips and Tricks by Scott Chacon
Boy, I can't find this either (but also, the kernel mailing list is _really_ difficult to search). I really remember Linus saying something like "it's not a real SCM, but maybe someone could build one on top of it someday" or something like that, but I cannot figure out how to find that.
You _can_ see, though, that in his first README, he refers to what he's building as not a "real SCM":

Do we think of Git commits as diffs, snapshots, and/or histories?
I understand all that.
I'm saying, if you write a survey and one of the possible answers is "diff", but you don't clearly define what you mean by "diff", then don't be surprised if respondents use any reasonable definition that makes sense to them. Ask an ambiguous question, get a mishmash of answers.
The thing that Git uses for packfiles is called a "delta" by Git, but it's also reasonable to call it a "diff". After all, Git's delta algorithm is "greatly inspired by parts of LibXDiff from Davide Libenzi"[1]. Not LibXDelta but LibXDiff.
Yes, how Git stores blobs (using deltas) is orthogonal to how Git uses blobs. But while that orthogonality is useful for reasoning about Git, it's not wrong to think of a commit as the totality of what Git does, including that optimization. (Some people, when learning Git, stumble over the way it's described as storing full copies, think it's wasteful. For them to wrap their heads around Git, they have to understand that the optimization exists. Which makes sense because Git probably wouldn't be practical if it lacked that optimization.)
The reason I'm bringing all this up is, if you're trying to explain Git, which is what the original article is about, then it's very important to keep in mind that someone who is learning Git needs to know what you mean when you say "diff". Most people who already know Git would tend to gravitate toward the definition of "diff" that you're assuming (the thing that Git computes on the fly and never stores), but people who already know Git aren't the target audience when you're teaching Git.
