How do you define "top 13 committers"? How do you prevent people from
playing the system by committing typo changes in comments etc.? Will
somebody who rewrites a larger change into a single commit be
negatively ranked compared to somebody who creates a small fix which
requires multiple small fixes afterwards?
I don't think quantity of anything (lines changed, commits, ..) is a
good metric in any way.
Either the list of contributors has to be inclusive or people have to
be elected (with all the issues of electing people)
