According to CoinCodeCap developer, commits is a word used for all the changes and updates that had been made in a given project at a particular period. CoinCodeCap developer stated that:
“A commit, or “revision”, is an individual change to a file (or set of files). It’s like when you save a file, except with Git, every time you save it creates a unique ID (aka the “SHA” or “hash”) that allows you to keep a record of what changes were made when and by who. Commits usually contain a commit message which is a brief description of what changes were made.”

According to Gaurav Agrawal of CoinMonks, the right path for a coin development should be the path above. Gaurav said that in a Medium post that: “Above is normal growth path for any industry but in terms of crypto this is flowing backward and this is problematic.” Bitcoin the first crypto in terms of market capitalization is in the 52nd position in terms of commits. Ethereum is in the 4th position with 15,617 commits.
