A repository can have more than one Tag, so the shares of a month add up to more than 100%. The Repository Index admits rising repositories from Oct 22, 2026. A repository that rose before that day and stopped is not in the earlier days. Source: AwesomeRepos Repository Index, its Tags, and its Star History (net stars each day from GitHub).
