# huggingface/accelerate — GitHub star history and repository health

Canonical HTML: https://gitdebt.com/huggingface/accelerate

Status: analyzed. Every figure below is measured — star history from gitdebt's Postgres cache, repository health from the public Git history. Private repositories are never analyzed or counted.

## Star snapshot

| Metric | Value |
| --- | --- |
| GitHub stars | 9,867 |
| Series | public star actions (historical data) |
| Star events observed | 9,010 |
| History covers | 2021-03-05 to 2026-09-11 |
| Repository created | 2020-10-30 |

The series records public star *actions* and cannot see unstars, so it is an attention signal rather than a net-star curve. The GitHub star total above is the headline figure.

### Growth records

| Window | Stars gained | Dates |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Best day | +165 | 2021-04-21 |
| Best week | +777 | 2021-04-17 to 2021-04-23 |
| Best 30 days | +1,153 | 2021-04-07 to 2021-05-06 |

### Milestones

| Stars | First reached | Days from creation |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 100 | 2021-04-07 | 159 |
| 1,000 | 2021-04-24 | 176 |

## Repository health

Raw figures over the trailing 90 days, computed from the public Git history. gitdebt publishes the counts rather than a grade here: judge them against what the project claims to be.

| Reading | Figures |
| --- | --- |
| Maintenance | 12 commits in the last 90 days, 48 in the 90 before · last commit 2026-07-24 |
| Ownership | 5 of 443 contributors write half of 1,986 attributed commits · top author 557 commits |
| Repair load | 1,136 of 5,874 file changes came from fix-labelled commits |
| Debt markers | No TODO or FIXME markers found in the analysed history |
| Change hotspot | `src/accelerate/accelerator.py` · 421 changes · 113 fix-labelled |
| File freshness | 170 of 484 tracked files touched in the last year |
| Commits read | 1,996 (full commit history) |
| Analysis last ran | 2026-08-15T01:36:54Z |

## Put this in a README

Three paste-ready snippets for `huggingface/accelerate`. Every URL is a plain public image: no account, token, build step, or GitHub Action. Each snippet already carries light and dark variants, alt text, and the link back to the report.

### Metrics badge

Stars and forks in one compact chip. Goes in the badge row directly under the project title.

### Star history

The full cumulative star curve. Goes in a `## Star history` section near the bottom of the README, above License.

### Repository card

Stars, forks, contributors, languages, and a 90-day sparkline in one panel. Goes in an About or Project status section.

Snippets are static by design, because motion in somebody else's README should be their decision: add `animate=1` to an SVG URL when it is wanted and it plays in a GitHub README, or use the `.gif` variant for a surface that takes raster alone. Keep the surrounding link and its `?ref=readme` — attribution lives on the link, never in an image URL — and do not add cache-busting parameters.
