After-Hours Commits
Burnout & Workflow Health
%
Unique to Projcity
Shows the percentage of commits made outside business hours (9am-6pm).
💡 Like tracking how many work emails you send after hours, the percentage reveals whether your workday regularly bleeds into personal time.
What It Measures
Shows the percentage of commits made outside business hours (9am-6pm).
Why It Matters
Monitoring work-life balance and sustainable pace
Identifying potential burnout risk (values over 30% are concerning)
How It's Calculated
Divides commits made outside 9am-6pm by total commits and multiplies by 100.
100 × COUNT(commits WHERE hour NOT BETWEEN 9 AND 18) ÷ COUNT(commits)Concrete Example
If 25% of your commits happen outside 9am–6pm, a quarter of your coding is happening in evenings or early mornings, worth monitoring for sustainability.
What Does a Healthy Score Look Like?
Lower is better, consistently high values signal unsustainable work patterns.
