Total Time: PRs First Review → Merge

The total amount of time (in seconds) that all pull requests took from when they received their first review until they were successfully merged into the main codebase.

Interpretation

  • Low Values (e.g., < 12 hours / PR) indicates very efficient review-to-merge process, quick resolution of review feedback
    typical for well-functioning teams with good communication. Verify that reviews are thorough despite speed.
  • Medium Values (e.g., 12-48 hours / PR) is a reasonable time for quality review process, common for teams with good review practices and indicates a balanced approach between speed and thoroughness. Monitor for consistency and identify optimization opportunities.
  • High Values (e.g., > 48 hours / PR) - slow resolution of review feedback. Potential Issues: multiple review rounds needed, complex changes requiring extensive discussion, poor communication between reviewers and authors, inefficient review processes.
