Software development teams rely heavily on version control systems such as Git to manage and track changes in source code.Every code modification performed by developers is stored as commit data, which contains valuable information regarding development activity and contribution patterns. However, many organizations do not fully utilize this data to evaluate developer productivity. Traditional evaluation methods are often manual and subjective, which may lead to inaccurate performance assessments. This paper proposes a Developer Productivity Analytics system that analyzes Git commit data to evaluate developer contributions. The system extracts key metrics such as commit frequency, lines of code added or deleted, active development
days, and code churn. These metrics are processed using data analytics techniques and visualized through dashboards and reports. The proposed system transforms raw Git repository data into meaningful productivity insights that support data‑driven decision‑making and transparent performance evaluation in software
development teams.
